If sinθ + sin2θ = 1, then cos2θ + cos4θ = ………A) -1 B) 1 C) 0 D) None of these

Answer»

Correct option is: B) 1

We have sin\(\theta\) + \(sin^2\theta\) = 1...(1)

\(1-sin^2\theta = sin\,\theta\)

\(cos^2\theta = sin\,\theta\)  ...(2) (\(\because\) \(1- sin^2\theta = cos^2\theta\))

Now, \(cos^2\theta + cos^4\theta = cos^2\theta + (cos^2\theta)^2\)

= sin \(\theta\) + \((sin \, \theta)​^2​​​​​​\)(\(\because\) \(cos^2\theta = sin \theta \) from (2))

= sin \(\theta\) + \(sin^2\theta\)

= 1    (From (1))

Correct option is: B) 1
