    Question

    If 3\sqrt{3} sinθ – cosθ= 0 (θ is an acute angle), then the value of cos3\text{cos}^3θ – 3\sqrt{3} sin3\text{sin}^3θ will be:

    A.

    34\tfrac{\sqrt 3}{4}​​

    B.

    32\tfrac{\sqrt 3}{2}​​

    C.

    -1

    D.

    38\tfrac{3}{8}​​

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    3\sqrt 3​s​in θ - cos θ = 0, and θ is an acute angle.

    Solution:

    3\sqrt 3​​s​in θ - cos θ = 0,

    3\sqrt 3​ sin θ = cos θ

    (3sinθ)cosθ\frac{(\sqrt 3 sin θ) }{ cos θ}​ = 1

    tan θ = 13\frac{1}{\sqrt 3}​​

    θ is an acute angle (0° < θ < 90°), we know that θ = 30°.

    cos³ θ - 3\sqrt 3​​ sin³ θ

    =cos³30°- 3\sqrt 3​​ sin³ 30°

    =(32)33(12)3=3383×18=33838=3338=238=34=\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)^3 - \sqrt{3} \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^3 \\= \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8} - \sqrt{3} \times \frac{1}{8} \\= \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8} - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{8} \\= \frac{3\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{3}}{8} \\= \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{8} \\= \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}​ 

    Option (a) is right.
