Mathematics Question on Trigonometric Functions
If θ∈(2π,23π), then the value of 4cos4θ+sin22θ+4cotθcos2(4π−2θ)
A
−2cotθ
B
2cotθ
C
2cosθ
D
2sinθ
Answer
2cotθ
Explanation
Solution
4cos4θ+sin22θ+4cotθcos2(4π−2θ)
=4cos4θ+(2sinθcosθ)2
+2cotθ[2cos2(4π−2θ)]
=4cos4θ+4sin2θcos2θ
+2cotθ[1+cos(2π−θ)]
[∵2cos2θ=1+cos2θ]
=4cos2θ(cos2θ+sin2θ)+2cotθ(1+sinθ)
=∣2cosθ∣+2cotθ+2cosθ
=−2cosθ+2cotθ+2cosθ
[forθ∈(2π,23π),cosθ∣=−cosθ]
=2cotθ
