If `sinx+sin^2x=1`n then the value of `cos^12x+3cos^10x+3cos^8x+cos^6x-1` is equal to

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3

We have `sinx+sin^2x=1`
`or sinx=1-sin^2xorsinx=cos^2x`
Now, `cos^12x+3sin^10x+3sin^4x+sin^3x-2`
`=sin^6x+3sin^5x+3sin^4x-2`
`=(sin^2x)^3+3(sin^2x)^2sinx+3(sin^2x)`
`(sinx)^2+(sinx)^3-2`
`=(sin^2x+sinx)^3-2=(1)^3-2=-1`
