For the following two (02) items:
Let and .
What is equal to?
Let and .
What is equal to?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Given q = \cos A + \cos Bp = 2 \sin\left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right) \cos\left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)q = 2 \cos\left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right) \cos\left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)pq\dfrac{p}{q} = \dfrac{2 \sin\left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right) \cos\left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)}{2 \cos\left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right) \cos\left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)}\dfrac{p}{q} = \tan\left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right)
