    If a cot⁡θ=b, then the value of (acos⁡θ−bsin⁡θ)(acos⁡θ+bsin⁡θ)\frac{(a cos⁡θ-b sin⁡θ )}{(a cos⁡θ+b sin⁡θ )}(acos⁡θ+bsin⁡θ)(acos⁡θ−bsin⁡θ)​​= ? &n
    Question

    If a cot⁡θ=b, then the value of (acosθbsinθ)(acosθ+bsinθ)\frac{(a cos⁡θ-b sin⁡θ )}{(a cos⁡θ+b sin⁡θ )}​= ?  

    A.

    2a

    B.

    a + b

    C.

    0

    D.

    a – b

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    acotθ=b\\a \cot \theta = b​​

    Solution:

    (acosθbsinθ)(acosθ+bsinθ)\frac{(a cos⁡θ-b sin⁡θ )}{(a cos⁡θ+b sin⁡θ )}  

    Dividing the whole equation by   sinθ,\sin \theta,

    Then 

    (acotθb)(acotθ+b)\frac{(a cot⁡θ-b )}{(a cot⁡θ+b )}    

    (a×bab)(a×ba+b)\frac{(a\times\frac{b}{a}-b )}{(a\times\frac{b}{a} +b )} 

    =  0
