Q44 of 123 Page 9

If a cos 2x + b sin 2x = c has α and β as its roots, then prove that

Given: a cos 2x + b sin 2x = c



We know,




Therefore,


a cos 2x + b sin 2x = c









We know,


If m and n are roots of the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0


then,


Product of the roots(mn)


Therefore,


If tan α and tan β are the roots of the equation



then,





Hence Proved
