The correct answer is: -2

Given,

0π2fsin 2xsin x dx+α0π4fcos 2xcos x dx=0

Now, let I=0π2fsin 2x.sin x dx

Now using property abfxdx=acfxdx+cbfxdx we get,
I=0π4fsin 2x sin x dx+π4π2fsin 2x.sin x dx

Now using property abfxdx=abfa+b-xdx we get,

I=0π4fcos 2x sin π4-xdx+0π4fsin 2π4+x sin π4+xdx 

I=0π4fcos 2x 12cos x-12 sin xdx+0π4fcos 2x 12cos x+12 sin xdx
I=0π4fcos 2x2 cos xdx

So, the putting the value of I in 0π2fsin 2xsin x dx+α0π4fcos 2xcos x dx=0 we get, α=-2
