    If a point \[(x,\ y)\equiv (\tan \theta +\sin \theta ,\ \tan \theta -\sin \theta )\], then locus of (x, y) is      [EAMCET 2002]

    A)            \[{{({{x}^{2}}y)}^{2/3}}+{{(x{{y}^{2}})}^{2/3}}=1\]  

    B)            \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}=4xy\]

    C)            \[{{({{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}})}^{2}}=16xy\]                            

    D)            \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}=6xy\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               Trick: Put the value of (x, y) \[\equiv \] (tan\[\theta +\sin \theta ,\,\tan \theta -\sin \theta )\] in option (c), which satisfies the equation.
