Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this kind of trigonometric problem
easily by the followings method :
Given :
cos^4a + cos^2a = 1
or, cos4^a = 1 - cos^2a
Therefore; cos^4a = sin^2a
Again,
To prove: cot^4a - cot^2a = 1
L.H.S = Cot^4a - cot^2a
= Cos^4a÷ sin^4a - Cos^2a ÷ sin^2a
= Sin^2a ÷ Sin^4a - cos^2a ÷ Sin^2a
= 1 ÷ Sin^2a - cos^2a ÷ Sin^2a
= 1 - cos^2a ÷ Sin^2a
= Sin^2a ÷ Sin^2a
= 1 = R.H.S proved.
