Find the value of sin(2sin−10.8) is equal to
A. sin−11.2
B. sin−1(0.96)
C. sin−1(0.48)
D. sin1.60
Solution
Hint: Let us use the formula of sin2x and also the property of inverse trigonometric functions.
Complete step-by-step answer:
Now, in this question, first use the property of sin2x= 2 sin x cos x.
Therefore,
sin(2sin−10.8) = 2sin(sin−10.8)cos(sin−10.8)
Now, 0.8 can be written as 54 in the form of fraction. So,
sin(2sin−10.8) = 2sin(sin−154)cos(sin−154) …… (1)
Now, let sin−154 = α, so, sinα = 54. Now, by using the property sin2α + cos2α = 1, we get
cosα = 53
Therefore, α = cos−153
⇒ sin−154 = cos−153
Now, putting this value in equation (1), we get
sin(2sin−10.8) = 2sin(sin−154)cos(cos−153)
Now, using the property sin(sin−1x) = x and cos(cos−1x) = x when x ∈ [-1,1]
As, the value of x is smaller than 1 so, by applying the above property, we get
sin(2sin−10.8) = 2(54)(53) = 0.96
So, the answer is 0.96.
Note: To solve such types of questions we have to use the property of trigonometry and inverse trigonometric function, apply proper property. The property of sin(sin−1x) gives different results depending on the value of x. If the value of lie in the interval [-1,1] it gives the x, in other cases there are different values where the value of x is in the other interval. In the given question as the value of x is smaller lies in [-1,1], so, it gives x.
