Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hint: Start by considering the given two points as P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2)P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2) . Compare the coordinates for values and apply the formula for distance between two given points i.e. s=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√s=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2
Simplify the values by using trigonometric identities ,to get the desired value.
Complete step by step answer:
Given
A(sin x , cos x) and B (cos x , -sin x)
We know that distance between two points P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2)P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2) is given by the formula s=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√s=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2
We have [x1= sin x , y1=cos x][x2= cos x , y2= −sin x][x1= sin x , y1=cos x][x2= cos x , y2= −sin x]
Substituting these values in the formula we get
s=(cosx−sinx)2+((−sinx)−cosx)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√s=(cosx−sinx)2+((−sinx)−cosx)2
By using the formula
(a−b)2=a2+b2−2ab and (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab=cos2x+sin2x−2sinxcosx+(−sinx)2+(cosx)2−2(−sinx)(cosx)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√=1−2sinxcosx+sin2x+cos2x+2sinxcosx−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√=1+1−−−−√S=2–√(a−b)2=a2+b2−2ab and (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab=cos2x+sin2x−2sinxcosx+(−sinx)2+(cosx)2−2(−sinx)(cosx)=1−2sinxcosx+sin2x+cos2x+2sinxcosx=1+1S=2
So, the correct answer is “Option B”.
