Option 1: 1

Option 2: 2

Option 3: – 1

Option 4: 0

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Solution : Given:
$\frac{\sin^4 \theta+\cos^4 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$
= $\frac{\sin^4\theta+\cos^4\theta+2\sin^2\theta \cos^2\theta-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$
= $\frac{(\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta)^2-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin ^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$
= $\frac{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$ [$\because \sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1$]
= $1$
