    If \[\tan A=1\] and  \[\tan B=\sqrt{3},\] the \[\cos A\cdot \cos B-\sin A\cdot \sin B\] is equal to

    A)  \[\frac{1+\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}}\]

    B)  \[\frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}}\]

    C)  \[\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\]

    D)  1

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\tan A=1,\]\[\sin A=\frac{\tan A}{\sqrt{1+{{\tan }^{2}}A}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[\cos A=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+{{\tan }^{2}}A}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\]
                \[\tan B=\sqrt{3},sinB=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{1+3}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]
    \[\cos B=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+3}}=\frac{1}{2}\]
    \[\therefore \]\[\cos A\cdot \cos B-\sin A\cdot \sin B=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot \frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]        \[=\frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}}\]
