= 2sin2θ - 1
= 1 - 2 cos2θ

उत्तर
L.H.S. = sin4θ - cos4θ
L.H.S. = (sin2θ)2 - (cos2θ)2
L.H.S. = (sin2θ - cos2θ)(sin2θ + cos2θ)
L.H.S. = (sin2θ - cos2θ) x 1
L.H.S. = sin2θ - cos2θ
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
L.H.S.= sin2θ - (1 - sin2θ)
L.H.S. = sin2θ - 1 + sin2θ
L.H.S. = 2sin2θ - 1
L.H.S. = R.H.S
L.H.S. = 2(1 - cos2θ) - 1
L.H.S. = 2 - 2cos2θ - 1
L.H.S. = 1 - 2cos2θ
L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Find the value of sin2θ + cos2θ

Solution:
In Δ ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠C = θ°
AB2 + BC2 = `square` .....(Pythagoras theorem)
Divide both sides by AC2
`"AB"^2/"AC"^2 + "BC"^2/"AC"^2 = "AC"^2/"AC"^2`
∴ `("AB"^2/"AC"^2) + ("BC"^2/"AC"^2) = 1`
But `"AB"/"AC" = square and "BC"/"AC" = square`
∴ `sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = square`
Statement 1: sin2θ + cos2θ = 1
Statement 2: cosec2θ + cot2θ = 1
Which of the following is valid?
