Which of the following equations is an identity a SinX1cosx
Which of the following equations is an identity?
a. Sin(X)=1-cos(x)
b. Sin^2(x)-1=tan^2(x)
c. Cos(2x)=2cos(x)sin(x)
d. 2csc(2x)=sec(x)csc(x)
Solution
(d) 2csc(2x) = sec(x)csc(x)
=> 2/sin(2x) = 1/{sin(x)cos(x)}
=> sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
which is an identity.
