Correct Answer

L.H.S. =(sin⁡7x+sin⁡5x)+(sin⁡9x+sin⁡3x)(cos⁡7x+cos⁡5x)+(cos⁡9x+cos⁡3x)= \frac{(\sin 7x + \sin 5x) + (\sin 9x + \sin 3x)}{(\cos 7x + \cos 5x) + (\cos 9x + \cos 3x)}

Using Identity 20(iii), sin⁡x+sin⁡y=2sin⁡x+y2cos⁡x−y2\sin x + \sin y = 2\sin \frac{x+y}{2}\cos \frac{x-y}{2}, we simplify the numerator terms:

sin⁡7x+sin⁡5x=2sin⁡6xcos⁡x\sin 7x + \sin 5x = 2\sin 6x \cos x

and

sin⁡9x+sin⁡3x=2sin⁡6xcos⁡3x\sin 9x + \sin 3x = 2\sin 6x \cos 3x

Therefore, the Numerator =2sin⁡6xcos⁡x+2sin⁡6xcos⁡3x=2sin⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)= 2\sin 6x \cos x + 2\sin 6x \cos 3x = 2\sin 6x (\cos x + \cos 3x).

Using Identity 20(i), cos⁡x+cos⁡y=2cos⁡x+y2cos⁡x−y2\cos x + \cos y = 2\cos \frac{x+y}{2}\cos \frac{x-y}{2}, we simplify the denominator terms:

cos⁡7x+cos⁡5x=2cos⁡6xcos⁡x\cos 7x + \cos 5x = 2\cos 6x \cos x

and

cos⁡9x+cos⁡3x=2cos⁡6xcos⁡3x\cos 9x + \cos 3x = 2\cos 6x \cos 3x

Therefore, the Denominator =2cos⁡6xcos⁡x+2cos⁡6xcos⁡3x=2cos⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)= 2\cos 6x \cos x + 2\cos 6x \cos 3x = 2\cos 6x (\cos x + \cos 3x).

Substituting these simplified forms back into the original expression:

L.H.S.=2sin⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)2cos⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)\text{L.H.S.} = \frac{2\sin 6x (\cos x + \cos 3x)}{2\cos 6x (\cos x + \cos 3x)}

By cancelling the common factor 2(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)2(\cos x + \cos 3x) from the numerator and denominator, we get:

L.H.S.=sin⁡6xcos⁡6x=tan⁡6x=R.H.S.\text{L.H.S.} = \frac{\sin 6x}{\cos 6x} = \tan 6x = \text{R.H.S.}

Hence proved.

Explanation

The solution applies the sum-to-product trigonometric identities provided in the context (Identity 20(i) and 20(iii)). By grouping terms in both the numerator and denominator, the expression is simplified to show that the Left Hand Side equals the Right Hand Side.

This follows the methodology demonstrated in Example 16 of the provided text.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Group the terms in the numerator and denominator. Apply Identity 20(iii) to numerator terms: sin⁡7x+sin⁡5x=2sin⁡6xcos⁡x\sin 7x + \sin 5x = 2\sin 6x \cos x and sin⁡9x+sin⁡3x=2sin⁡6xcos⁡3x\sin 9x + \sin 3x = 2\sin 6x \cos 3x.

  2. Step 2: Factorise the numerator to get 2sin⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)2\sin 6x(\cos x + \cos 3x).

  3. Step 3: Apply Identity 20(i) to denominator terms: cos⁡7x+cos⁡5x=2cos⁡6xcos⁡x\cos 7x + \cos 5x = 2\cos 6x \cos x and cos⁡9x+cos⁡3x=2cos⁡6xcos⁡3x\cos 9x + \cos 3x = 2\cos 6x \cos 3x.

  4. Step 4: Factorise the denominator to get 2cos⁡6x(cos⁡x+cos⁡3x)2\cos 6x(\cos x + \cos 3x).

  5. Step 5: Divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator and cancel common terms to get tan⁡6x\tan 6x.
