Solution
To solve this we need to know all the trigonometric identities. First we square sinA+sinB=C and cosA+cosB=D, after we add both of them. Then we multiply C and D and on further simplification we will get the answer. To simplify this we need to know the Pythagoras identity sin2A+cos2A=1 and also the sum and difference formula of sine and cosine function.
Complete step by step answer:
Given
sinA+sinB=C−−−(1)
cosA+cosB=D−−−(2)
Now squaring on both sides for equation (1) and (2).
(sinA+sinB)2=C2
(cosA+cosB)2=D2
Now we know the algebraic identity (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab. Applying this we have
sin2A+sin2B+2sinA.sinB=C2−−−(3)
cos2A+cos2B+2cosA.cosB=D2−−−−(4)
Now adding equation (3) and (4) we have
sin2A+sin2B+2sinA.sinB+cos2A+cos2B+2cosA.cosB=C2+D2
Now grouping we have
(sin2A+cos2A)+(sin2B+cos2B)+2(sinA.sinB+cosA.cosB)=C2+D2
We know the Pythagoras identity sin2A+cos2A=1 and sin2B+cos2B=1. Applying this we have
1+1+2(sinA.sinB+cosA.cosB)=C2+D2
We also know cos(A−B)=sinA.sinB+cosA.cosB. Then we have
2+2(cos(A−B))=C2+D2
2(cos(A−B))=C2+D2−2
Or
⇒cos(A−B)=2C2+D2−2−−−(5)
Now let us multiply C and D then we have
CD=(sinA+sinB)(cosA+cosB)
Expanding the brackets we have
=sinA(cosA+cosB)+sinB(cosA+cosB)
=sinA.cosA+sinA.cosB+sinB.cosA+sinB.cosB
We know sin2A=2sinA.cosA and sin2B=2sinB.cosB, then using this we have
=2sin2A+(sinA.cosB+sinB.cosA)+2sin2B
Also we know sin(A+B)=sinA.cosB+sinB.cosA, applying we have
=2sin2A+sin(A+B)+2sin2B
=2sin2A+2sin2B+sin(A+B)
Taking 21 common we have
=21(sin2A+sin2B)+sin(A+B)
We know (sin2A+sin2B)=2sin(A+B)cos(A−B) then
=21(2sin(A+B)cos(A−B))+sin(A+B)
Simplifying we have
=(sin(A+B)cos(A−B))+sin(A+B)
Now taking sin(A+B) common we have
=sin(A+B)(cos(A−B)+1)
Now from equation (5) we have cos(A−B)=2C2+D2−2
=sin(A+B)(2C2+D2−2+1)
Taking LCM and simplifying we have
=sin(A+B)(2C2+D2−2+2)
Thus we have
⇒CD=sin(A+B)(2C2+D2)
Multiplying two on both sides we have
2CD=sin(A+B)(C2+D2)
⇒sin(A+B)=2CDC2+D2.
So, the correct answer is “Option C”.
Note: We need to be careful in the simplification part. While applying the Pythagoras identity both the angle of sine and cosine should be the same. If we have sin2A+cos2B , then it is not equal to 1. Which goes the same for the sine double angle formula.
