If sinx +siny=a and cosx +cosy=b then find sin(x+y)and cos(x+y)

Question

Arun · Answer

sinx + siny = a 2sin(x+y/2)cos(x-y/2) = a ......................1 (by using sum formula) cosx + cosy = b 2cos(x-y/2)cos(x+y/2) = b ..................2 divide both tan(x+y/2) = a/b ...........3 tan 2 @ = sec 2 @ - 1 & sec@ = 1/cos@ so cos(x+y/2) = [b 2 /a 2 +b 2 ] 1/2 ......................4 sin(x+y/2) = {1-cos 2 (x+y/2)} 1/2 = [a 2 /a 2 +b 2 ] 1/2 .............5 sinx+y = 2sin(x+y/2)cos(x+y/2) (sinA = 2sinA/2cosA/2) from eq 4 & 5 sin(x+y )= 2ab/a 2 +b 2 similarily we can deduce cos (x +y)
