Choose the correct answer
is equal to
We need to find the value of:
![]()
Let ![]()
Take cosine on both sides, we get
![]()
Using property of inverse trigonometry,
cos(cos-1 A) = A
![]()
We have the value of cos x, let us find the value of sin x.
By trigonometric identity,
sin2 x + cos2 x = 1
⇒ sin2 x = 1 – cos2 x
![]()
Putting
,




![]()
Now,
![]()
Using the trigonometric identity,
sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x
![]()
Putting the value of
and
,
![]()
![]()
