Question : Simplify the following.
$\frac{\sin^3 \alpha+\cos^3 \alpha}{\sin \alpha+\cos \alpha}$

Option 1: $1+\sin \alpha \cos \alpha$

Option 2: $\tan \alpha$

Option 3: $1-\sin \alpha \cos \alpha$

Option 4: $\sec \alpha$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $1-\sin \alpha \cos \alpha$


Solution : $\frac{\sin^3 \alpha+\cos^3 \alpha}{\sin \alpha+\cos \alpha}$
= $\frac{(\sin \alpha+\cos \alpha)(\sin^2 \alpha+\cos^2 \alpha–\sin \alpha\cos \alpha)}{\sin \alpha+\cos \alpha}$
= $(1–\sin \alpha\cos \alpha)$ [$\because \sin^2 \alpha+\cos^2 \alpha=1]$
Hence, the correct answer is $(1–\sin \alpha\cos \alpha)$.

Question : $\cos^3 60°-\cos^3 240°-\cos^3 360°=$ _________.

Option 1: $-\frac{3}{4}$

Option 2: $-\frac{7}{5}$ 

Option 3: $-\frac{3}{5}$

Option 4: $-\frac{9}{7}$

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $-\frac{3}{4}$


Solution : Given: $\cos ^3 60°-\cos ^3 240°-\cos ^3 360°$
Now, $\cos60°=\frac{1}{2}$
$\cos240°=\cos(180°+60°)=-\cos60°=-\frac{1}{2}$
$\cos360°=\cos(360°+0°)=\cos0°=1$
So, $\cos^3 60°-\cos^3 240°-\cos^3 360°$
= $(\frac{1}{2})^3-(-\frac{1}{2})^3-(1)^3$
= $\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{8}-1$
= $-\frac{3}{4}$
Hence, the correct answer is $-\frac{3}{4}$.
