If tanθ = m/n, prove that: (m sinθ - n cosθ)/(m sinθ + n cosθ) = (m² - n²)/(m² + n²)​

Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\large\underline{\sf{Given \:Question - }}[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: tan\theta = \dfrac{m}{n}, \: prove \: that \: \dfrac{msin\theta - ncos\theta}{msin\theta + ncos\theta} = \dfrac{ {m}^{2} - {n}^{2} }{ {m}^{2} + {n}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] \green{\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}}[/tex]

Given that

[tex]\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:tan\theta = \dfrac{m}{n} }[/tex]

Now, Consider

[tex]\rm :\longmapsto\:\dfrac{msin\theta - ncos\theta}{msin\theta + ncos\theta} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{cos\theta\bigg[m\dfrac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} - n\bigg]}{cos\theta\bigg[m\dfrac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} + n\bigg]} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{mtan\theta - n}{mtan\theta + n} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{m \times \dfrac{m}{n} - n}{m \times \dfrac{m}{n} + n} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{\dfrac{ {m}^{2} }{n} - n}{\dfrac{ {m}^{2} }{n} + n} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{\dfrac{ {m}^{2} - {n}^{2} }{n}}{\dfrac{ {m}^{2} + {n}^{2} }{n}} [/tex]

[tex]\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{ {m}^{2} - {n}^{2} }{ {m}^{2} + {n}^{2} } [/tex]

Hence,

[tex] \red{\sf \: tan\theta = \dfrac{m}{n}, \: \rm \implies\: \: \dfrac{msin\theta - ncos\theta}{msin\theta + ncos\theta} = \dfrac{ {m}^{2} - {n}^{2} }{ {m}^{2} + {n}^{2} }}[/tex]
