SSC CPO - 28 June 2024 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q102

The value of (2cos⁡3θ−cos⁡θsin⁡θ−2sin⁡3θ)2\left( 2cos⁡^3θ−cos⁡θ\over sin⁡θ−2sin⁡^3θ \right)^2 +1, 0 ≠ 45° is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. cosec2θ.

⇒ (2cos⁡3θ−cos⁡θsin⁡θ−2sin⁡3θ)2\left( 2cos⁡^3θ−cos⁡θ\over sin⁡θ−2sin⁡^3θ \right)^2 + 1

 ⇒ ((2cos⁡2θ−1)cos⁡θsin⁡θ(1−2sin⁡2θ))2\left( (2cos⁡^2θ−1)cos⁡θ\over sin⁡θ(1−2sin⁡^2θ) \right)^2+ 1

 ⇒ ((cos⁡2θ)cos⁡θsin⁡θ(Cos2θ))2\left( (cos⁡2θ)cos⁡θ\over sin⁡θ(Cos2θ) \right)^2 + 1

 ⇒ (cos⁡θsin⁡θ)2\left( cos⁡θ\over sin⁡θ \right)^2+ 1

 ⇒ ⁡sec2θ⁡sec^2θ + 1

 ⇒ cosec2θ
