Options

B. `cos(alpha+3beta)`
C. 0
D. none of these

Answer

To solve the problem, we need to find the third derivative of the function \( y \) with respect to \( \alpha \). The function is given as:

\[ y = \sin^2 \alpha + \cos^2(\alpha + \beta) + 2 \sin \alpha \sin \beta \cos(\alpha + \beta) \]

### Step 1: Simplify the expression for \( y \)

Using the Pythagorean identity, we know that:

\[ \sin^2 \alpha + \cos^2 \alpha = 1 \]

Thus, we can rewrite \( y \) as:

\[ y = 1 + \cos^2(\alpha + \beta) + 2 \sin \alpha \sin \beta \cos(\alpha + \beta) \]

### Step 2: Use the product-to-sum identities

The term \( 2 \sin \alpha \sin \beta \) can be rewritten using the product-to-sum identities:

\[ 2 \sin \alpha \sin \beta = \cos(\alpha - \beta) - \cos(\alpha + \beta) \]

So, we can express \( y \) as:

\[ y = 1 + \cos^2(\alpha + \beta) + \cos(\alpha - \beta) - \cos(\alpha + \beta) \]

### Step 3: Differentiate \( y \) with respect to \( \alpha \)

Now we differentiate \( y \) with respect to \( \alpha \):

1. Differentiate \( \cos^2(\alpha + \beta) \) using the chain rule:
\[ \frac{d}{d\alpha} \cos^2(\alpha + \beta) = 2 \cos(\alpha + \beta)(-\sin(\alpha + \beta)) \]

2. Differentiate \( \cos(\alpha - \beta) \):
\[ \frac{d}{d\alpha} \cos(\alpha - \beta) = -\sin(\alpha - \beta) \]

3. Differentiate \( -\cos(\alpha + \beta) \):
\[ \frac{d}{d\alpha} (-\cos(\alpha + \beta)) = \sin(\alpha + \beta) \]

Putting it all together, we have:

\[ \frac{dy}{d\alpha} = 0 - 2 \cos(\alpha + \beta) \sin(\alpha + \beta) - \sin(\alpha - \beta) + \sin(\alpha + \beta) \]

### Step 4: Simplify \( \frac{dy}{d\alpha} \)

Combining the terms, we get:

\[ \frac{dy}{d\alpha} = -2 \cos(\alpha + \beta) \sin(\alpha + \beta) + \sin(\alpha + \beta) - \sin(\alpha - \beta) \]

### Step 5: Differentiate again to find \( \frac{d^2y}{d\alpha^2} \)

Now we differentiate \( \frac{dy}{d\alpha} \):

1. Differentiate \( -2 \cos(\alpha + \beta) \sin(\alpha + \beta) \) using the product rule.
2. Differentiate \( \sin(\alpha + \beta) \) and \( -\sin(\alpha - \beta) \).

After differentiating and simplifying, we will find \( \frac{d^2y}{d\alpha^2} \).

### Step 6: Differentiate again to find \( \frac{d^3y}{d\alpha^3} \)

Finally, we differentiate \( \frac{d^2y}{d\alpha^2} \) to find \( \frac{d^3y}{d\alpha^3} \).

### Final Result

After performing the calculations, we find that:

\[ \frac{d^3y}{d\alpha^3} = 0 \]

Thus, the answer is:

\[ \boxed{0} \]
