Answer
Correct option: A.
1
$\cos\text{A}+\cos^2\text{A}=1$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{A}=1-\cos^2\text{A}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{A}=\sin^2\text{A}$
Now, $\sin^2\text{A}+\sin^4\text{A}=\cos\text{A}+\cos^2\text{A}=1$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{A}=1-\cos^2\text{A}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{A}=\sin^2\text{A}$
Now, $\sin^2\text{A}+\sin^4\text{A}=\cos\text{A}+\cos^2\text{A}=1$
