If tan⁡α=mm+1\tan \alpha=\frac{m}{m+1} and tan⁡β=12m+1\tan \beta=\frac{1}{2 m+1}, then α+β=\alpha+\beta=
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
π4\frac{\pi}{4}
Option B (π4\frac{{\pi}}{{4}}) is correct because by using the formula for tan⁡(α+β)\tan(\alpha + \beta), we can show that tan⁡(α+β)=1\tan(\alpha + \beta) = 1, which implies α+β=π4\alpha + \beta = \frac{{\pi}}{{4}}.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
y−x=1y-x=1
Option D (y−x=1y-x=1) is correct because within the specified range of θ\theta, x becomes −sin⁡2θ-\sin^2 \theta and y becomes cos⁡2θ\cos^2 \theta, leading to y−x=cos⁡2θ+sin⁡2θ=1y-x = \cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta = 1.
