Solution

The correct option is A ${tan}^{2} (\frac{α}{2})$
${cot}^{- 1} [{(cos α)}^{1 / 2}] - {tan}^{- 1} [{(cos α)}^{1 / 2}] = x$

$\Rightarrow {tan}^{- 1} [\frac{1}{\sqrt{cos α}}] - {tan}^{- 1} [\sqrt{cos α}] = x$

$\Rightarrow {tan}^{- 1} ⎡ ⎢ ⎢ ⎢ ⎢ ⎢ ⎣ \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{cos α}} - \sqrt{cos α}}{1 + \frac{\sqrt{cos α}}{\sqrt{cos α}}} ⎤ ⎥ ⎥ ⎥ ⎥ ⎥ ⎦ = x$

$\Rightarrow {tan}^{- 1} [\frac{1 - cos α}{2 \sqrt{cos α}}] = x$

$\Rightarrow tan x = \frac{1 - cos α}{2 \sqrt{cos α}}$

$∴ sin x = \frac{1 - cos α}{1 + cos α}$

$= \frac{2 {sin}^{2} \frac{α}{2}}{2 {cos}^{2} \frac{α}{2}} = {tan}^{2} (\frac{α}{2})$
