If (2 sin θ + 3 cos θ) = 2, show that (3 sin θ − 2 cos θ) = ± 3.

Answer»

(2 sin θ + 3 cos θ) = 2 …(1)

(2 sin θ + 3 cos θ)2 + (3 sin θ – 2 cos θ)2

= 4sin2 θ + 9 cos2 θ + 12sin θ cos θ + 9 sin2 θ + 4 cos2 θ – 12 sin θ cos θ

= 13sin2 θ + 13 cos2 θ

= 13(sin2 θ + cos2 θ)

= 13

(Because (sin2 θ + cos2 θ) = 1)

=> (2 sin θ + 3 cos θ)2 + (3 sin θ – 2 cos θ)2 = 13

Using equation (1)

=> (2)2 + (3 sin θ – 2 cos θ)2 = 13

=> (3 sin θ – 2 cos θ)2 = 9

or (3 sin θ – 2 cos θ) = ± 3

Hence Proved.
