Correct answer: D: $-4-2\SQRT3$

  1. Write the determinant

We need

∣0cos⁡x−sin⁡xsin⁡x0cos⁡xcos⁡xsin⁡x0∣=0.\left| \begin{matrix} 0 & \cos x & -\sin x\\ \sin x & 0 & \cos x\\ \cos x & \sin x & 0 \end{matrix} \right|=0.​0sinxcosx​cosx0sinx​−sinxcosx0​​=0.

Let s=sin⁡x,c=cos⁡x.s=\sin x,\qquad c=\cos x.s=sinx,c=cosx. Then the determinant becomes

∣0c−ss0ccs0∣.\left| \begin{matrix} 0 & c & -s\\ s & 0 & c\\ c & s & 0 \end{matrix} \right|.​0sc​c0s​−sc0​​.
  1. Evaluate the determinant

Expanding along the first row,

D=0⋅∣0cs0∣−c⋅∣scc0∣+(−s)⋅∣s0cs∣.D=0\cdot\left|\begin{matrix}0&c\\ s&0\end{matrix}\right|-c\cdot\left|\begin{matrix}s&c\\ c&0\end{matrix}\right|+(-s)\cdot\left|\begin{matrix}s&0\\ c&s\end{matrix}\right|.D=0⋅​0s​c0​​−c⋅​sc​c0​​+(−s)⋅​sc​0s​​.

Now,

∣scc0∣=s⋅0−c⋅c=−c2,\left|\begin{matrix}s&c\\ c&0\end{matrix}\right|=s\cdot 0-c\cdot c=-c^2,​sc​c0​​=s⋅0−c⋅c=−c2,

so the second term is

−c(−c2)=c3.-c(-c^2)=c^3.−c(−c2)=c3.

Also,

∣s0cs∣=s⋅s−0⋅c=s2,\left|\begin{matrix}s&0\\ c&s\end{matrix}\right|=s\cdot s-0\cdot c=s^2,​sc​0s​​=s⋅s−0⋅c=s2,

so the third term is

(−s)(s2)=−s3.(-s)(s^2)=-s^3.(−s)(s2)=−s3.

Hence

D=c3−s3.D=c^3-s^3.D=c3−s3.

Condition D=0D=0D=0 gives

c3−s3=0  ⟹  c3=s3  ⟹  c=s.c^3-s^3=0 \implies c^3=s^3 \implies c=s.c3−s3=0⟹c3=s3⟹c=s.
  1. Solve sin⁡x=cos⁡x\sin x=\cos xsinx=cosx on [0,2π][0,2\pi][0,2π]
tan⁡x=1  ⟹  x=π4+nπ.\tan x=1 \implies x=\frac{\pi}{4}+n\pi.tanx=1⟹x=4π​+nπ.

In [0,2π][0,2\pi][0,2π], the solutions are

x=π4, 5π4.x=\frac{\pi}{4},\ \frac{5\pi}{4}.x=4π​, 45π​.

So

S={π4,5π4}.S=\left\{\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{5\pi}{4}\right\}.S={4π​,45π​}.
  1. Compute the required sum

We need

∑x∈Stan⁡(π3+x)=tan⁡(π3+π4)+tan⁡(π3+5π4).\sum_{x\in S}\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+x\right) =\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)+\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{5\pi}{4}\right).x∈S∑​tan(3π​+x)=tan(3π​+4π​)+tan(3π​+45π​).

Since tangent has period π\piπ,

tan⁡(π3+5π4)=tan⁡(π3+π4+π)=tan⁡(7π12).\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) =\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{4}+\pi\right) =\tan\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right).tan(3π​+45π​)=tan(3π​+4π​+π)=tan(127π​).

Thus both terms are equal, so

sum=2tan⁡(7π12).\text{sum}=2\tan\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right).sum=2tan(127π​).

Now,

tan⁡(7π12)=tan⁡(π3+π4)=tan⁡π3+tan⁡π41−tan⁡π3tan⁡π4=3+11−3.\tan\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right)=\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{4}\right) =\frac{\tan\frac{\pi}{3}+\tan\frac{\pi}{4}}{1-\tan\frac{\pi}{3}\tan\frac{\pi}{4}} =\frac{\sqrt3+1}{1-\sqrt3}.tan(127π​)=tan(3π​+4π​)=1−tan3π​tan4π​tan3π​+tan4π​​=1−3​3​+1​.

Rationalizing,

3+11−3⋅1+31+3=(3+1)21−3=3+1+23−2=−2−3.\frac{\sqrt3+1}{1-\sqrt3}\cdot\frac{1+\sqrt3}{1+\sqrt3} =\frac{(\sqrt3+1)^2}{1-3} =\frac{3+1+2\sqrt3}{-2} =-2-\sqrt3.1−3​3​+1​⋅1+3​1+3​​=1−3(3​+1)2​=−23+1+23​​=−2−3​.

Therefore,

sum=2(−2−3)=−4−23.\text{sum}=2(-2-\sqrt3)=-4-2\sqrt3.sum=2(−2−3​)=−4−23​.
  1. Compare with options

This matches −4−23\boxed{-4-2\sqrt3}−4−23​​ which is Option D.

  1. Comparison with stored correct answer

Stored correct answer is C: −2−3-2-\sqrt3−2−3​, but our computed sum is −4−23.-4-2\sqrt3.−4−23​. So the stored answer appears to be incorrect.
