MCQ
The value of $\frac{\cos3\text{x}}{2\cos2\text{x}-1}$ is equal to:
  • A
    $\cos\text{x}$
  • B
    $\sin\text{x}$
  • C
    $\tan\text{x}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

  1. $\cos\text{x}$

Solution:

We have,

$\therefore\frac{\cos3\text{x}}{2\cos2\text{x}-1}=\frac{4\cos^3​\text{x}-3\cos​\text{x}}{1(2\cos^2​\text{x}-1)-1}$ $[\therefore\cos3​\text{x}=4\cos^3​\text{x}-3\cos​\text{x}]$

$=\frac{4\cos^3​\text{x}-3\cos​\text{x}}{4\cos^2​\text{x}-2-1}$

$=\frac{4\cos^3​\text{x}-3\cos​\text{x}}{4\cos^2​\text{x}-3}$

$=\cos​\text{x}\Big(\frac{4\cos^2​\text{x}-3}{4\cos^2​\text{x}-3}\Big)$

$=\cos​\text{x}$
