    Let \[x+y=3-\cos 4\theta \] and \[x-y=4sin2\theta \] then the greatest of \[xy\]is

    A) \[\frac{3}{4}\]              

    B) \[1\]    

    C) \[\frac{1}{2}\]                          

    D) 2

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[x=\frac{3-\cos 4\theta +4sin2\theta }{2}\] \[=\frac{3-(1-{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta )+4\sin 2\theta }{2}={{(1+\sin 2\theta )}^{2}}\] \[y=\frac{3-\cos 4\theta -4\sin 2\theta }{2}\] \[=\frac{3-(1-{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta )+4\sin 2\theta }{2}={{(1-\sin 2\theta )}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \,\,xy={{(1-{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta )}^{2}}=\cos {{\,}^{4}}2\theta \le 1\]
