c o s A = 1 c o s 2 A c o s A = s i n 2 A cos A = 1 - cos^2 A \Rightarrow cos A = sin^2 A s i n 2 A + s i n 4 A = c o s A + c o s 2 A = 1 sin^2 A + sin^4 A = cos A + cos^2 A = 1

since,sin2A+cos2A=1 therefore: cos2A=I-sin2A PUTTING IT IN THE EQUATION GIVEN WE GET; cosA +1-sin2A=1 cosA-sin2A=0 therefore, cosA=sin2A hence, sin2A + sin4A = 1

cos A + cos² A = 1

and...

[cos² A + sin² A = 1]

cos A + cos² A = cos² A + sin² A

so...

cos A = sin² A


sin² A + sin^{4} A = x

cos A + (cos)² A = x

x = 1

There is a missing + sign between powers of sin.

Yes, I saw that.

Sorry Sharky, I am disturbing you again and again but could you please tell me that have you ever saw Mr. BM SHARMA ' s vedio lectures on YouTube if you study physics on YouTube ? He has his books too. :)

Thanks, I have udpated the question.

In future, if you spot any errors with a problem, you can “report” it by selecting the “dot dot dot” menu in the lower right corner. You will get a more timely response that way.
