Solution

Let fθ=12sinθ -9 sin2θ =-9sin2θ-12 sin θ = -3sin θ2-2.3 sin θ.2+22-4 =-3 sinθ-22-4 =4-3 sinθ-22Minimum value of 3 sinθ-22 is 0.Therefore, maximum value of fθ= 4-3 sinθ-22 is 4.We are given that 12sinθ -9 sin2θ will attain its maximum value at θ=α. 12sinα -9 sin2α =4-9sin2α+12sinα-4=09sin2α-12 sinα+4=09sin2α-6sinα-6sinα+4=03sinα3sinα-2-23sinα-2=03sinα-23sinα-2=0 sinα=23
