Question : If $(\cos q+\sin q)=\frac{31}{25}$, then what will be the value of $\cos^2 q$?
Option 1: $\frac{522}{625}$
Option 2: $\frac{512}{625}$
Option 3: $\frac{513}{625}$
Option 4: $\frac{576}{625}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{576}{625}$
Solution : \(\cos q + \sin q = \frac{31}{25}\) ____(i) Squaring both sides, we get, $⇒(\cos q + \sin q)^2 = \left(\frac{31}{25}\right)^2$ $⇒\cos^2 q + \sin^2 q + 2\cos q \sin q = \left(\frac{31}{25}\right)^2$ $⇒1 + 2\cos q \sin q = \left(\frac{31}{25}\right)^2$ $⇒2\cos q \sin q =
