उत्तर

L.H.S. = sin4A – cos4

= (sin2A)2 – (cos2A)2

= (sin2A + cos2A)(sin2A – cos2A)   ...[∵ a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b)]

= (1)(sin2A – cos2A)   ...[∵ sin2A + cos2A = 1]

= sin2A – cos2A

= (1 – cos2A) – cos2A   ...`[(∵ sin^2A + cos^2A = 1),(∴ 1 - cos^2A = sin^2A)]`

= 1 – 2 cos2A

= R.H.S.

∴ sin4A – cos4A = 1 – 2 cos2A
