MCQ
$\text{If }\cos\text{A}=\text{m}\cos\text{B},\text{ than }\cot\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\cot\frac{\text{B}-\text{A}}{2}=$
  • A
    $\frac{\text{m}-1}{\text{m}+1}$
  • B
    $\frac{\text{m}+2}{\text{m}-2}$
  • $\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m-1}}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m-1}}$
Given:
$\cos\text{A}=\text{m}\cos\text{B}$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\cos\text{A}}{\cos\text{B}}=\frac{\text{m}}{1}$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\cos\text{A}+\cos\text{B}}{\cos\text{A}-\cos\text{B}}=\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m}-1}$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{2\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)}{-2\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B+A}}{2}\Big)\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)}=\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m}-1}$ $\Big[\because\ \cos\text{A}+\cos\text{B}=2\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)\\\text{ and } \cos\text{A}-\cos\text{B}=2\sin\Big(\frac{\text{A}+\text{B}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}-\text{B}}{2}\Big)\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\cos\Big(\frac{\text{B}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)\cos\Big(\frac{\text{A}+\text{B}}{2}\Big)}{\sin\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)}=\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m}-1}$
$\Rightarrow\ \cot\Big(\frac{\text{A+B}}{2}\Big)\cot\Big(\frac{\text{B}-\text{A}}{2}\Big)=\frac{\text{m}+1}{\text{m}-1}$
