उत्तर

cos4 A − sin4 A is equal to 2 cos2 A − 1.

Explanation:

The given expression is cos4 A − sin4 A.

Factorising the given expression, we have

cos4 A − sin4 A = [(cos2 A)2 − (sin2 A)2]

= (cos2 A + sin2 A) × (cos2 A − sin2 A) ...[∵ (a2 − b2) = (a + b)(a − b)]

= cos2 A − sin2 A  ...[∵ sin2 A + cos2 A = 1]

= cos2 A − (1 − sin2 A) 

= cos2 A − 1 + cos2

= 2 cos2 A − 1
