      Question

      If cosx/siny = n and cosx/cosy = m, then the value of

      cos 2 y is: 1. m 2 /(m 2  + n 2 )2. 1/(m 2  + n 2 )3. n 2 /(m 2  + n 2 )4. 0
      A 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Since, cosx = nsiny
      (nsiny)/(cosy) = m
      ntany = m
      tany = m/n
      tan 2 y = m 2 /n 2
      sec 2 y = 1 + m 2 /n 2  = (m 2  + n 2 )/n 2
      cos 2 y = 1/sec 2 y = n 2 /(m 2  + n 2 )
