The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \(\frac{\sin \alpha}{\sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha}\) given that \(\tan \alpha = 2\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the given information:** We know that \(\tan \alpha = 2\). This means that in a right triangle, the opposite side (perpendicular) is 2 and the adjacent side (base) is 1. 2. **Finding the hypotenuse:** Using the Pythagorean theorem: \[ \text{Hypotenuse} = \sqrt{(\text{opposite})^2 + (\text{adjacent})^2} = \sqrt{2^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{4 + 1} = \sqrt{5} \] 3. **Calculating \(\sin \alpha\) and \(\cos \alpha\):** - \(\sin \alpha = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}\) - \(\cos \alpha = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\) 4. **Calculating \(\sin^3 \alpha\) and \(\cos^3 \alpha\):** - \(\sin^3 \alpha = \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^3 = \frac{8}{5\sqrt{5}}\) - \(\cos^3 \alpha = \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^3 = \frac{1}{5\sqrt{5}}\) 5. **Finding \(\sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha\):** \[ \sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha = \frac{8}{5\sqrt{5}} + \frac{1}{5\sqrt{5}} = \frac{8 + 1}{5\sqrt{5}} = \frac{9}{5\sqrt{5}} \] 6. **Substituting into the expression:** Now we substitute \(\sin \alpha\) and \(\sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha\) into the expression: \[ \frac{\sin \alpha}{\sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha} = \frac{\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}}{\frac{9}{5\sqrt{5}}} \] 7. **Simplifying the expression:** \[ = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} \times \frac{5\sqrt{5}}{9} = \frac{2 \cdot 5}{9} = \frac{10}{9} \] ### Final Answer: The value of \(\frac{\sin \alpha}{\sin^3 \alpha + \cos^3 \alpha}\) is \(\frac{10}{9}\). ---
