The maximum value of (2sin θ + 3cos θ) is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 13\sqrt13.

The maximum value of (a sin x + b cos x) = √(a2 + b2)

The maximum value of (2sin θ + 3cos θ) = √(22 + 32) = √(4 + 9) = √13

Therefore, the maximum value of 2sin θ + 3cos θ is √13.
