We have to prove that 5sin θ – 3cos θ = ±3.


We know that, sin2 𝜃 + cos2 𝜃 = 1
Squaring the given equation, we have
(3 sin θ + 5 cos θ)2 = (5)2
⇒ 9 sin2 𝜃 + 2 × 3 sin 𝜃 × 5 cos 𝜃 + 25 cos2 𝜃 = 25
⇒ 9(1 − cos2 𝜃 ) + 2 × 3 sin 𝜃 × 5 cos 𝜃 + 25(1 − sin2 𝜃 ) = 25
⇒ 9 − 9 cos2 𝜃 + 2 × 3 sin 𝜃 × 5 cos 𝜃 + 25 − 25 sin2 𝜃 = 25
⇒ 34 − (9 cos 2 𝜃 − 2 × 3 sin 𝜃 × 5 cos 𝜃 + 25 sin2 𝜃 ) = 25
⇒ −(25 sin2 𝜃 − 2 × 5 sin 𝜃 × 3 cos 𝜃 + 9 cos2 𝜃 ) = −9
⇒ (25 sin2 𝜃 − 2 × 5 sin 𝜃 × 3 cos 𝜃 + 9 cos2 𝜃 ) = 9

Question 66: Prove the following trigonometric identities.

(sec A + tan A − 1) (sec A − tan A + 1) = 2 tan A


ANSWER:
We have to prove (sec A + tan A − 1) (sec A − tan A + 1) = 2 tan A
We know that, sec 2 A − tan2 A = 1
So, we have
(sec A + tan A − 1) (sec A − tan A + 1)
= {sec A + (tan A − 1)} {sec A − (tan A + 1)}
= sec 2 A + (tan A − 1)2
= sec 2 A + (tan2 A − 2 tan 𝐴 + 1)
= (sec 2 A + tan2 A) + 2 tan 𝐴 − 1

Question 81: Prove the following trigonometric identities.

if cos A + cos2 A = 1, prove that sin2 A + sin4 A = 1


ANSWER:
Given: cos A + cos2 A = 1
We have to prove sin2 A + sin4 A = 1
Now,
cos 𝐴 + cos2 𝐴 = 1
⇒ cos 𝐴 = 1 − cos 2 𝐴
⇒ cos 𝐴 = sin2 𝐴
⇒ sin2 𝐴 = cos 𝐴
Therefore, we have
sin2 𝐴 + sin4 𝐴 = cos 𝐴 + (cos 𝐴)2
= cos 𝐴 + cos2 𝐴
=1

Hence proved.

From the given equation, we have

cos θ + cos2 θ = 1
⇒ cos θ = 1 − cos2 θ
⇒ cos θ = sin2 θ
⇒ sin2 θ = cos θ

Therefore, we have
sin12 θ + 3 sin10 θ + 3 sin8 θ + sin6 θ + 2 sin4 θ + 2 sin2 θ – 2
= (sin12 𝜃 + 3 sin10 𝜃 + 3 sin8 𝜃 + sin6 𝜃 ) + (2 sin4 𝜃 + 2 sin2 𝜃 ) − 2
= {(sin4 𝜃 )3 + 3(sin4 𝜃 )2 sin2 𝜃 + 3 sin4 𝜃 (sin2 𝜃 )2 + (sin2 𝜃 )3 }
+2(sin4 𝜃 + sin2 𝜃 ) − 2
= (sin4 𝜃 + sin2 𝜃 )3 + 2(sin4 𝜃 + sin2 𝜃 ) − 2
= (cos2 𝜃 + cos 𝜃 )3 + 2(cos2 𝜃 + cos 𝜃 ) − 2

Hence proved.

Let us assume that


(1 + cos α) (1 + cos β) (1 + cos γ) = (1 − cos α) (1 − cos β) (1 − cos γ) = L
We know that, sin2 𝜃 + cos2 𝜃 = 1
Then, we have
𝐿×𝐿
= (1 + cos α) (1 + cos β) (1 + cos γ) × (1 − cos α) (1 − cos β) (1 − cos γ)
⇒ 𝐿2 = {(1 + cos α) (1 – cos α)} {(1 + cos β) (1 – cos β)}
{(1 + cos γ) (1 − cos γ)}
⇒ 𝐿2 = (1 – cos2 α) (1 – cos2 β) (1 – cos2 γ)
⇒ 𝐿2 = sin2 𝛼 sin2 𝛽 sin2 𝛾
⇒ 𝐿 = ± sin 𝛼 sin 𝛽 sin 𝛾
Therefore, we have
(1 + cos α) (1 + cos β) (1 + cos γ) = (1 − cos α) (1 − cos β) (1 − cos γ)
= ± sin 𝛼 sin 𝛽 sin 𝛾
Taking the expression with the positive sign, we have
(1 + cos α) (1 + cos β) (1 + cos γ) = (1 − cos α) (1 − cos β) (1 − cos γ)

Squaring the given equation, we have


(sin θ + cos θ)2 = x
⇒ sin2 𝜃 + 2 sin 𝜃 cos 𝜃 + cos2 𝜃 = 𝑥 2
⇒ (sin2 𝜃 + cos2 𝜃 ) + 2 sin 𝜃 cos 𝜃 = 𝑥 2
⇒ 1 + 2 sin 𝜃 cos 𝜃 = 𝑥 2
⇒ 2 sin 𝜃 cos 𝜃 = 𝑥 2 − 1

Squaring the last equation, we have

ANSWER:
It is given that,
sinθ+2cosθ=1⇒2cosθ=1−sinθ ...... (i)
Squaring both sides, we get
⇒ (2cosθ)2 = (1 − sinθ)2
⇒ 4cos2 θ = 1 + sin2 θ − 2sinθ
⇒ 4cos2 θ = 1 + sin2 θ − 2sinθ − 1 + 1
⇒ 4cos2 θ = 2 − 2sinθ − (1 − sin2 θ)
⇒ 4cos2 θ = 2 − 2sinθ − cos2 θ
