MCQ
If $\text{A}-\text{B}=\frac\pi4,$ then $(1+\tan\text{A})(1-\tan\text{B})$ is equal to:
  • 2
  • B
    1
  • C
    0
  • D
    3

Answer

Correct option: A.
2
$\tan(\text{A - B})=\tan\frac\pi4$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\tan\text{A}-\tan\text{B}}{1+\tan\text{A}\tan\text{B}}=1$
$\Rightarrow\tan\text{A}-\tan\text{B}=1+\tan\text{A}\tan\text{B}\cdots(1)$
Now,
$(1+\tan\text{A})(1-\tan\text{B})=1+\tan\text{A}-\tan\text{B}-\tan\text{A}\tan\text{B}$
$=1+1+\tan\text{A}\tan\text{B}-\tan\text{A}\tan\text{B}$
$=2$
