If cos - 1 x 2 + cos - 1 y 3 = θ , then 9 x 2 - 12 x y cos θ + 4 y 2 =

If cos-1x2+cos-1y3=θ, then 9x2-12xycosθ+4y2=
  1. 36sin2θ
  2. 37sin2θ
  3. 39sin2θ
  4. 36cos2θ

Solution

Given:

cos-1x2+cos-1y3=θ

cos-1x2y3-1-x241-y29=θ

x2y3-4-x249-y29=cosθ

xy6-4-x229-y23=cosθ

xy-4-x2·9-y2=6cosθ

4-x2·9-y2=xy-6cosθ

Squaring both sides, we get

4-x2·9-y2=36cos2θ+x2y2-12xycosθ

36-9x2-4y2+x2y2=36cos2θ+x2y2-12xycosθ

36-36cos2θ=9x2+4y2-12xycosθ

9x2+4y2-12xycosθ=36sin2θ
