If cosbeta is the geometric mean between...

If `cosbeta` is the geometric mean between `sinalphaa n dcosalpha,` where `0

A

`-2sin^(2)((pi)/(4)-alpha)`

B

`-2cos^(2)((pi)/(4)+alpha)`

C

`2sin^(2)((pi)/(4)+alpha)`

D

`2cos^(2)((pi)/(4)-alpha)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B

`2 sin alpha cos alpha=2cos^(2)beta`
`sin2alpha=1+cos 2beta`
`therefore cos 2beta=-(1-sin 2alpha)`
`=-(1-cos((pi)/(2)-2a))`
`=-2sin^(2)((pi)/(4)-alpha))`
`=-2cos^(2)((pi)/(4)+alpha)`
