Express 2cos⁡x−5sin⁡x\sqrt{2}\cos x - \sqrt{5}\sin x in the form Rcos⁡(x+α)R\cos(x + \alpha), where R>0R > 0 and 0∘<α<90∘0^\circ < \alpha < 90^\circ. Give the exact value of RR and the value of α\alpha correct to 3 decimal places.
5(b) [4]
Hence solve the equation 2cos⁡2θ−5sin⁡2θ=1\sqrt{2}\cos 2\theta - \sqrt{5}\sin 2\theta = 1, for 0∘<θ<180∘0^\circ < \theta < 180^\circ.
