SSC CGL 2020 PYQ — Question 62

SSC CGL - 6th March 2020 Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q62

If (2 SinA + CosecA) = 2√2, 0o < A < 90o then the value of 2(Sin4 A + Cos4 A) is :

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e 1

Explanation:

(2 SinA + CosecA) = 2√2

To find the value A, we satisfy the above equation so put the value of A = 45o

(2 Sin45o + Cosec45o) = 2√2

(2 × 1/√2 + √2) = 2√2

2√2 = 2√2

2(Sin4A + Cos4A)

= 2(Sin445o + Cos45o)

= 2((1/√2)4 + (1/√2)4)

= 2(1/4 + 1/4) = 2(1/2) = 1
