In the expansion ofxcosθ+1xsinθ16,ifl1is the least value of the term independent ofxwhenπ8θπ4andl2is the least value of the term independent ofxwhenπ16θπ8,then the ratiol2:l1is equal to:

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Tr+1=Cr16xcosθ16-r1xsinθr
forr=8term is free from'x'
T9=C8161sin8θcos8θ
T9=C81628sin2θ8
Inθπ8,π4,l1=C81628(Minimum value ofl1atθ=π4)
Inθπ16,π8,l2=C81628128=C816·28·24(Minimum value ofl2atθ=π8)
l2l1=C816.2824C816.28=16
