MCQ
If $\cos (\alpha + \beta ) = \frac{4}{5},\sin (\alpha - \beta ) = \frac{5}{{13}}$ and $\alpha ,\beta $ lie between $0$ and $\frac{\pi }{4},$ then $\tan 2\alpha = $
  • A
    $\frac{{16}}{{63}}$
  • $\frac{{56}}{{33}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{28}}{{33}}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{{56}}{{33}}$
b
(b) We have $\cos \,(\alpha + \beta ) = \frac{4}{5}$

and $\sin \,(\alpha - \beta ) = \frac{5}{{13}}$

$ \Rightarrow \,\,\sin \,(\alpha + \beta ) = \frac{3}{5}$

and $\cos \,(\alpha - \beta ) = \frac{{12}}{{13}}$

$ \Rightarrow \,\,2\alpha = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\frac{3}{5} + {\sin ^{ - 1}}\frac{5}{{13}}$

$ = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left[ {\frac{3}{5}\sqrt {1 - \frac{{25}}{{169}}} + \frac{5}{{13}}\sqrt {1 - \frac{9}{{25}}} } \right]$

$ \Rightarrow \,\,2\alpha = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\,\left( {\frac{{56}}{{65}}} \right)\,$

$\Rightarrow \,\sin \,2\alpha = \frac{{56}}{{65}}$

Now, $\tan \,2\alpha = \frac{{\sin \,2\alpha }}{{\cos \,2\alpha }} $

$= \frac{{56/65}}{{33/65}} = \frac{{56}}{{33}}$.
