If alpha+beta=(pi)/(2), then prove that ...

If `alpha+beta=(pi)/(2)`, then prove that `cosalpha=sqrt((sinalpha)/(cosbeta)-sinalphacosbeta)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`LHS=cosalpha`
`RHS=sqrt((sinalpha)/(cosbeta)-sinalphacosbeta)`
`=sqrt((sinalpha)/(cos(90^(@)-alpha))-sinalphacos(90^(@)-alpha))[:'alpha+beta=90^(@)impliesbeta=90^(@)-alpha]`
`=sqrt((sinalpha)/(sinalpha)-sinalpha.sinalpha)`
`=sqrt(1-sin^(2)alpha)=sqrt(cos^(2)alpha)=cosalpha.`
`:.LHS=RHS.`
