= 8 [2cos20° cos60° cos20° – cos40° cos80°]
= 4 [2cos220° – 2cos40° cos80°]
= 4 [1 + cos40° – (cos120° + cos40°)]

Q.1153/06 If sin x + cos x + tan x + cot x + sec x + cosec x = 7 then sin 2x = a  b 7 where a, b  N. Find
the ordered pair (a, b). [Ans. a = 22 , b = 8]
[Sol. S  sin x ; C  cos x
S C 1 1 S2C  C 2S  S2  C 2  S  C
S+C+ + + + =7  =7
C S C S SC
SC (S + C) + 1 + S + C = 7 S C  (S + C) (1 + SC) = 7SC – 1
(S + C)2 (1 + SC)2 = (7 SC – 1)2
(1 + 2 SC) (1 + SC)2 = (7 SC – 1)2
put sin x · cos x = y
(1 + 2y) (1 + y)2 = (7y – 1)2  (1 + 2y) (1 + y2 + 2y) = 49y2 – 14y + 1
1 + y2 + 2y + 2y + 2y3 + 4y2 = 49y2 – 14y + 1  2y3 – 44y2 + 18y = 0
2y [y2 – 22y + 9] = 0  2y = 22  484  36 (as y  0)
y = 11 ± 121 9 = 11 ± 4 7
sin x · cos x = 11 ± 4 7
2sin x · cos x = 22 – 8 7 + ve is rejected as sin 2x can have max. value as 1 ]
