Option 1: $2 \cos^2 A+1$

Option 2: $1-2 \sin ^2 A$

Option 3: $2 \sin^2 A-1$

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $1-2 \sin ^2 A$


Solution : Given: $\cos^4 A-\sin^4 A$
$= (\cos^2A)^2-(\sin ^2A)^2$
$= (\cos^2A-\sin^2 A)(\cos^2 A+\sin^2 A)$
$= (\cos^2A-\sin^2A)×1$ [$\because \cos^2A+\sin^2A=1$]
$=(1-\sin^2A-\sin^2A)$
$= 1-2\sin^2A$

Hence, the correct answer is $1-2\sin^2A$.
