JEE MATHEMATICS MCQ: TRANSFORMATION OF AXES

1 Easy
1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
If by shifting the origin at (1,  1)\left( {1,\;1} \right) the coordinates of a point PP become (cos⁡θ,cos⁡ϕ),\left( {\cos \theta ,\cos \phi } \right), then the original coordinates of PP were
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
(2cos⁡2θ/2,  2cos⁡2ϕ/2)\left( {2{{\cos }^2}\mathrm{\theta }/2,\;2{{\cos }^2}\phi /2} \right)
Option A (2cos⁡2θ/2,  2cos⁡2ϕ/2)\left( {2{{\cos }^2}\mathrm{\theta }/2,\;2{{\cos }^2}\phi /2} \right) is correct because it represents the original coordinates of P after shifting the origin back, using the identity 1+cos⁡θ=2cos⁡2(θ/2)1 + \cos \theta = 2{\cos ^2}(\theta /2).
