Question

tan4x=4tanx(1tan2x)16tan2x+tan4x

Open in App
Solution

TakingLHS

Weknowthat

tan2x=2tanx1tan2x

Replacingxwithtanx

tan(22x)=2tan2x1tan22x

tan(4x)=2tan2x1tan22x

Usingtan2x=2tanx1tan2x

tan4x=2(2tanx1tan2x)1(2tanx1tan2x)2

=(4tanx1tan2x)1(4tan2x(1tan2x)2)

=(4tanx1tan2x)((1tan2x)24tan2x(1tan2x)2)

=4tanx1tan2x(1tan2x)2(1tan2x)24tan2x

=4tanx1(1tan2x)(1tan2x)24tan2x

=4tanx(1tan2x)(1tan2x)24tan2x

Using(ab)2=a2+b22ab

=4tanx(1tan2x)((12)+(tan2x)221tan2x)4tan2x

=4tanx(1tan2x)1+tan4x2tan2x4tan2x


=RHS

Henceproved
