Given:
Step 1: Rewrite the equation using trigonometric identity: \[ p \cos \theta + q \sin \theta = \sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \cos(\theta - \alpha) \] where \( \alpha \) is an angle such that \( \cos \alpha = \frac{p}{\sqrt{p^2 + q^2}} \) and \( \sin \alpha = \frac{q}{\sqrt{p^2 + q^2}} \).
Step 2: Analyze the range of the left side: \[ -\sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \leq p \cos \theta + q \sin \theta \leq \sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \]
Step 3: Compare with the given condition \( |r| > \sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \):
Conclusion: The equation \( p \cos \theta + q \sin \theta = r \) has no real solution under the given condition.
The correct answer is (D) no real solution.
The given equation is:
\[ p\cos\theta + q\sin\theta = r \]
We can rewrite this equation using the auxiliary angle method. Let \( p = R\cos\phi \) and \( q = R\sin\phi \), where \( R = \sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \) and \( \phi = \arctan(q/p) \).
Then the equation becomes:
\[ R\cos\phi\cos\theta + R\sin\phi\sin\theta = r \] \[ R\cos(\theta - \phi) = r \] \[ \cos(\theta - \phi) = \frac{r}{R} = \frac{r}{\sqrt{p^2 + q^2}} \]
Since \( |r| > \sqrt{p^2 + q^2} \), we have \( \left|\frac{r}{R}\right| > 1 \).
However, the range of the cosine function is \([-1, 1]\).
Therefore, there are no real solutions for \( \theta \) in this case.
The equation has no solution.
