Correct answer: D

  1. We need to solve 4cos⁡θ−3sin⁡θ=1,θ∈[0,π4].4\cos\theta-3\sin\theta=1, \qquad \theta\in\left[0,\frac{\pi}{4}\right].4cosθ−3sinθ=1,θ∈[0,4π​]. Let c=cos⁡θ,s=sin⁡θ.c=\cos\theta,\qquad s=\sin\theta.c=cosθ,s=sinθ. Then 4c−3s=14c-3s=14c−3s=1 and also c2+s2=1.c^2+s^2=1.c2+s2=1.

  2. Express sss in terms of ccc: s=4c−13.s=\frac{4c-1}{3}.s=34c−1​. Substitute into c2+s2=1c^2+s^2=1c2+s2=1: c2+(4c−13)2=1.c^2+\left(\frac{4c-1}{3}\right)^2=1.c2+(34c−1​)2=1.

  3. Simplify: c2+16c2−8c+19=1c^2+\frac{16c^2-8c+1}{9}=1c2+916c2−8c+1​=1 9c2+16c2−8c+1=99c^2+16c^2-8c+1=99c2+16c2−8c+1=9 25c2−8c−8=0.25c^2-8c-8=0.25c2−8c−8=0.

  4. Solve the quadratic: c=8±64+80050c=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64+800}}{50}c=508±64+800​​ =8±86450=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{864}}{50}=508±864​​ =8±12650=\frac{8\pm 12\sqrt6}{50}=508±126​​ =4±6625.=\frac{4\pm 6\sqrt6}{25}.=254±66​​.

  5. Since θ∈[0,π4]\theta\in\left[0,\frac{\pi}{4}\right]θ∈[0,4π​], we have cos⁡θ∈[12,1],\cos\theta\in\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt2},1\right],cosθ∈[2​1​,1], so cos⁡θ\cos\thetacosθ must be positive and fairly large. Thus cos⁡θ=4+6625.\cos\theta=\frac{4+6\sqrt6}{25}.cosθ=254+66​​. (The other root is negative, so it is impossible.)

  6. Now compare with the options. Rationalize option D:

=4(36+2)54−4=126+850=66+425.=\frac{4(3\sqrt6+2)}{54-4} =\frac{12\sqrt6+8}{50} =\frac{6\sqrt6+4}{25}.=54−44(36​+2)​=50126​+8​=2566​+4​.

This is exactly 4+6625.\frac{4+6\sqrt6}{25}.254+66​​.

Hence, cos⁡θ=436−2.\boxed{\cos\theta=\frac{4}{3\sqrt6-2}}.cosθ=36​−24​​. So the correct option is D.
