Q16 of 26 Page 1

If x = a cos θ + b sinθ and y = asinθ – bcosθ, show that:

As x = acos θ +bsinθ …(1)


Differentiating x w.r.t θ we get-




…(2)


Similarly we have,


y = a sinθ – b cosθ …(3)


Differentiating y w.r.t θ we get-





…(4)


By chain rule we can write that:



From equation 2 and 4 we have-



From equations 1 and 3, we get-


…(5)



Differentiating both sides w.r.t x –



Using product rule of differentiation, we can write it as-




From equation 5 we can write it as-
