Question
If $tanA + cotA = 4$, then $tan^4A + cot^4A$ is equal to

Answer

d
$(\tan A+\cot A)^{2}=16$

$\Rightarrow \quad \tan ^{2} A+\cot ^{2} A+2=16$

$\Rightarrow \quad \tan ^{2} A+\cot ^{2} A=14$

$\Rightarrow \quad\left(\tan ^{2} A+\cot ^{2} A\right)^{2}=196$

$\Rightarrow \quad \tan ^{4} A+\cot ^{4} A+2=196$

$\Rightarrow \quad \tan ^{4} A+\cot ^{4} A=194$
