MCQ
If $tanA + cotA = 4$, then $tan^4A + cot^4A$ is equal to
  • A
    $110$
  • B
    $191$
  • C
    $80$
  • $194$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$194$
d
$(\tan A+\cot A)^{2}=16$

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

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

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

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

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