Solution
If M = x cos A + y sin A and N = x sin A − y cos A, then M2 + N2 is x2 + y2.
Explanation:
Substituting value of M and N in M2 + N2, we get:
⇒ (x cos A + y sin A)2 + (x sin A − y cos A)2
⇒ x2 cos2 A + y2 sin2 A + 2xy sin A cos A + x2 sin2 A + y2 cos2 A − 2xy sin A cos A
⇒ x2 cos2 A + y2 sin2 A + x2 sin2 A + y2 cos2 A
⇒ x2 cos2 A + x2 sin2 A + y2 sin2 A + y2 cos2 A
⇒ x2 (sin2 A + cos2 A) + y2 (sin2 A + cos2 A)
Substituting, sin2 A + cos2 A = 1, we get:
⇒ x2 × 1 + y2 × 1
⇒ x2 + y2
