Question

Let γ1,γ2,γ3\gamma_1, \gamma_2, \gamma_3 be the eigenvalues of the matrix [1000costsint0sintcost]\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos t & \sin t \\ 0 & -\sin t & \cos t \end{bmatrix}, where t[π,π]t \in [-\pi, \pi] is in radians.
Which one of the following options lists all the possible values of tt satisfying γ1+γ2+γ3=1+2\gamma_1 + \gamma_2 + \gamma_3 = 1 + \sqrt{2}?
