Prove that `tan(pi/4+1/2 cos^-1(a/b))+tan(pi/4-1/2 cos^-1(a/b))=(2b)/a`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `1/2cos^-1(a/b) = x`
Then, `a/b = cos2x->(1)`
Now,
`L.H.S. = tan(pi/4+1/2cos^-1(a/b))+tan(pi/4-1/2cos^-1(a/b))`
`=tan(pi/4+x)+tan(pi/4-x)`
`=(1+tanx)/(1-tanx)+(1-tanx)/(1+tanx)`
`=((1+tanx)^2+(1-tanx)^2)/(1-tan^2x)`
`=(1+tan^2x+2tanx+1+tan^2x-2tanx)/(1-tan^2x)`
