    If\[\tan A=\frac{1-\cos B}{\sin B}.\]then:

    A)  \[\tan 2A=\tan B\]

    B)                   \[\tan 2A=ta{{n}^{2}}B\]

    C)                   \[\tan 2A={{\tan }^{2}}B+2\tan B\]

    D)                   none of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\tan A=\frac{1-\cos B}{\sin B}\] \[=\frac{2{{\sin }^{2}}(B/2)}{2\sin (B/2)\cos (B/2)}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\tan A=\tan \frac{B}{2}\] Now,     \[\tan 2A=\frac{2\tan A}{1-{{\tan }^{2}}A}=\frac{2\tan (B/2)}{1-{{\tan }^{2}}(B/2)}\] \[=\frac{2\sin (B/2)\cos (B/2)}{{{\cos }^{2}}(B/2)-{{\sin }^{2}}(B/2)}=\frac{\sin B}{\cos B}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\tan 2A=\tan B\]
