      Question

      If tanθ – cotθ = a and cosθ + sinθ = b, then

      (b2 –1)(a2 + 4) = ?
      A 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Put θ = 45°
      then, a = tanθ – cotθ = 1 –1 = 0
      and, b = cosθ + sinθ
      = 1/√2 + 1/√2 =√2
      Now, (b 2 –1) (a 2 + 4) = (2 – 1) (0 + 4) = 4
