If acos 2θ+bsin 2θ=c has α and β as its roots, prove that α+tanβ=2ba+c and αtan β=2a+cb2c2+a2.

Solution

It is given that acos 2θ+bsin 2θ=c

a(1tan2 θ1+tan2 θ)+b(2tan θ1+tan2 θ)=c [ cos 2θ=1tan2 θ1+tan2 θ and sin2θ=2tan θ1+tan2 θ]

a(1tan2 θ)+2b tan θ=c(1+tan2 θ)

(a+c)tan2 θ2b tan θ+(ca)=0

which is a quadratic equation in tanθ

Sum of roots = tan α+tan β=(2ba+c)=2ba+c

and product of roots = tan α.tanβ=(ca)a+c

Now, We have LHS = tan αtanβ=(tan α+tanβ)24 tan α tanβ

= (2ba+c)24(caa+c)=2(a+c)b2(ca)(c+a)

= 2(a+c)b2(c2a2)=2(a+c)b2c2+a2=RHS

Hence proved.
