If sin (theta) = (frac{m – n}{m + n}); Find the value of 1 + tan2(theta)

  • A.
    (frac{(m^2 + n^2)}{m + n})
  • B.
    (frac{(m^2 + n^2 + 2mn)}{4mn})
  • C.
    (frac{2(m^2 + n^2 + mn)}{m + n})
  • D.
    (frac{(m^2 + n^2 + mn)}{m + n})
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

((m + n)^{2} = (m – n)^{2} + x^{2})

(m^{2} + 2mn + n^{2} = m^{2} – 2mn + n^{2} + x^{2})

(x^{2} = 4mn)

(x = sqrt{4mn} = 2sqrt{mn})

1 + tan2(theta) = sec2(theta)
= (frac{1}{cos^2theta})
(cos theta = frac{2sqrt{mn}}{(m + n)})

(frac{1}{cos theta} = frac{(m + n)}{2sqrt{mn}})

(sec^{2} theta = frac{(m + n)^{2}}{4mn})

= (frac{(m^2 + n^2 + 2mn)}{4mn})
