The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to verify that \(2 \sin A \cos A = 1\) given that \(\tan A = 1\) in a right triangle ABC, where angle B is the right angle. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information**: We know that in triangle ABC, angle B is 90 degrees. Therefore, angles A and C must be acute angles that add up to 90 degrees. 2. **Using the Tangent Function**: Given that \(\tan A = 1\), we can interpret this in terms of the definition of tangent in a right triangle: \[ \tan A = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = 1 \] This implies that the lengths of the opposite side and the adjacent side are equal. Thus, we can conclude that angle A must be 45 degrees. 3. **Finding the Value of Angle A**: Since \(\tan A = 1\), we can find that: \[ A = 45^\circ \] 4. **Substituting into the Expression**: Now we need to verify the expression \(2 \sin A \cos A = 1\). We substitute \(A = 45^\circ\): \[ 2 \sin 45^\circ \cos 45^\circ \] 5. **Calculating \(\sin 45^\circ\) and \(\cos 45^\circ\)**: We know that: \[ \sin 45^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \quad \text{and} \quad \cos 45^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \] 6. **Substituting the Values**: Now we substitute these values into the expression: \[ 2 \sin 45^\circ \cos 45^\circ = 2 \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \] 7. **Simplifying the Expression**: This simplifies to: \[ 2 \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 1 \] 8. **Conclusion**: Therefore, we have verified that: \[ 2 \sin A \cos A = 1 \]
