Explanation

Solution

Hint: At first write the inequation then apply ln function to all the sides of inequality to get the inequality as π2<lnθ<lnπ2\dfrac{-\pi }{2}<\ln \theta <\ln \dfrac{\pi }{2}. Then apply cos function to write the given inequation as, 0<cos(lnθ)<cos(lnπ2)0<\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)<\cos \left( \ln \dfrac{\pi }{2} \right). From here get the inequality cos(lnθ)>0\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)>0. Then use the fact that 1cosθ1-1\le \cos \theta \le 1. After then apply the in function to get ln(cosθ)0\ln \left( \cos \theta \right)\le 0.

Complete step-by-step answer:
In the question we are given as inequality which is eπ2<θ<π2{{e}^{\dfrac{-\pi }{2}}}<\theta <\dfrac{\pi }{2}.
So, we are given that,
eπ2<θ<π2{{e}^{\dfrac{-\pi }{2}}}<\theta <\dfrac{\pi }{2}
Now we will take loge{{\log }_{e}} or ln to all the sides of inequality to write the equation as,
lneπ2<lnθ<lnπ2\ln {{e}^{\dfrac{-\pi }{2}}}<\ln \theta <{{\ln }^{\dfrac{\pi }{2}}}
Here the sides of the inequality do not change because there is a property of in function that is a < b, then, lna<lnb\ln a<\ln b.
We can write lneπ2\ln {{e}^{\dfrac{-\pi }{2}}} as π2\dfrac{-\pi }{2}. So, we can write the inequality as,
π2<lnθ<lnπ2\dfrac{-\pi }{2}<\ln \theta <\ln \dfrac{\pi }{2}
Now, we will take cos to all the sides of inequalities so we get,
cos(π2)<cos(lnθ)<cos(lnπ2)\cos \left( \dfrac{-\pi }{2} \right)<\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)<\cos \left( \ln \dfrac{\pi }{2} \right)
Here cos function will not change the sides of inequality as the values are very less to be considered.
We know that, cos(θ)=cosθ\cos \left( -\theta \right)=\cos \theta .
So, cos(π2)\cos \left( \dfrac{-\pi }{2} \right) is equal to cosπ2\cos \dfrac{\pi }{2} and as we know value of cosπ2\cos \dfrac{\pi }{2} is 0.
So, we can write that, cos(lnθ)\cos \left( \ln \theta \right) is greater than 0.
Now, as know cosθ\cos \theta always less than or equal to 1. So, we say that ln(cosθ)\ln \left( \cos \theta \right) also less than or equal to ln(1)\ln \left( 1 \right) which is equal to ‘0’.
Hence, ln(cosθ)0\ln \left( \cos \theta \right)\le 0.
We also found out that, cos(lnθ)>0\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)>0.
Means we can write it as,
ln(cosθ)0<cos(lnθ)\ln \left( \cos \theta \right)\le 0<\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)
Or, ln(cosθ)<cos(lnθ)\ln \left( \cos \theta \right)<\cos \left( \ln \theta \right)
We can write it as,
log(cosθ)<cos(logθ)\log \left( \cos \theta \right)<\cos \left( \log \theta \right)
So, the correct option is (b).

Note: While solving inequalities students generally confuse themselves while taking functions to all the sides of the inequality where or where not to change.
