Question
Prove that `(sec8 theta - 1)/(sec4 theta - 1) = (tan8 theta)/(tan2 theta)`
Advertisements
Solution
We have `(sec8 theta - 1)/(sec4 theta - 1) = ((1 - cos8 theta) cos 4theta)/(cos 8theta(1 - cos4theta))`
= `(2sin^2 4theta cos 4theta)/(cos8theta 2sin^2 2theta)`
= `(sin4theta(2sin4theta cos 4theta))/(2cos8theta sin^2 2theta)`
= `(sin4theta sin 8theta)/(2 cos8 theta sin^2 2theta)`
= `(2sin 2theta cos 2theta sin 8theta)/(2 cos8theta sin^2 2theta)`
= `(tan8 theta)/(tan 2theta)`

Let the angles of the quadrilateral be \[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ \text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\]
We know: \[a - 3d + a - d + a + d + a - 2d = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow 4a = 360\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 90\]
We have:
Greatest angle = 120°
Now,
\[a + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 90 + 3d = 120\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3d = 30\]
\[ \Rightarrow d = 10\]
Hence,
\[\left( a - 3d \right)^\circ, \left( a - d \right)^\circ, \left( a + d \right)^\circ\text{ and }\left( a + 3d \right)^\circ\] are
