For `A=133^(@), 2cos\ A/2`is equal to

A

`-sqrt(1+sinA)-sqrt(1-sinA)`

B

`-sqrt(1+sinA)+sqrt(1-sinA)`

C

`sqrt(1+sinA)-sqrt(1-sinA)`

D

`sqrt(1+sinA)+sqrt(1-sinA)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We have,
`sqrt(1+sinA)=sqrt((cos""(A)/(2)+sin""(A)/(2))^(2))`
`impliessqrt(1+sinA)=|cos""(1)/(2)+sin""(A)/(2)|`
`impliessqrt(1+sinA)=cos""(A)/(2)+sin""(A)/(2)" "[because(A)/(2)"is an acute angle"]`
`and, sqrt(1-sinA)=sqrt((cos""(A)/(2)-sin(A)/(2))^(2))`
`impliessqrt(1-sinA)=|cos ""(A)/(2)-sin""(1)/(2)|`
`impliessqrt(1-sinA)=(cos""(A)/(2)-sin""(A)/(2))" "[{:(,because=66(1)/(2)""^(@)),(,thereforecos""(A)/(2)ltsin""(A)/(2)):}]`
`impliessqrt(1-sinA)=sin""(A)/(2)cos""(A)/(2)`
`therefore2 cos""(A)/(2)=sqrt(1+sinA)-sqrt(1-sinA)`
