If sinx=2cosx Then, what is the value of sin2x? pleaz tell

OpenStudy (apoorvk):

Square both sides \[sin^2x = 4cos^2x \text{ }....(i)\] \[or, 1-cos^2x = 4cos^2x\] Now solve this to find out 'x'. Then use that to find out the value of sin2x.

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

but i get cosx=1/sqrt(5),then what?

OpenStudy (apoorvk):

so you can find sinx. now, sin2x = 2*sinx*cosx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin2x=2sinxcosx\]

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

k!then

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

how would we find value of sinx?

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

k! thanx i got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin2x=4\cos ^{^{2}}x\]
