Let $A = \{\theta \in [0, 2\pi)$ : $\frac{1 + 2i \sin \theta}{1 - i \sin \theta}\}$ is purely imaginary. Then the sum of the elements in $A$ is
  1. 4π
  2. 3π
  3. π
  4. 2π

Solution

Let

z=1+2isinθ1-isinθ

z=1+2isinθ1-isinθ×1+isinθ1+isinθ

z=1-2sin2θ+3isinθ1+sin2θ

z=1-2sin2θ1+sin2θ+i3sinθ1+sin2θ

Since, z is a purely imaginary number, so real part must be zero, hence

1-2sin2θ1+sin2θ=0

1-2sin2θ=0

cos2θ=0

θ=π4,3π4,5π4,7π4, for θ0,2π

Sum of all values =16π4=4π
