The least value of |a| for which sinq and cosecq are the roots of the equation x^2 + ax + b = 0 is

Question

The least value of |a| for which sinθ and cosecθ are the roots of the equation x² + ax + b = 0 is

(A)  2

(B)  1 

(C)  1/2 

(D)  0

Answer 1

Correct option  (A) 2

sin θ + cosec θ = −a

Hence, least value of |a| = 2.
