Prove that cos2θ=((1−tan^2 θ)/(1+tan^2 θ)).Hence deduce that   tan22(1/2)=(√2)−1.

cos 2θ=cos^2 θ−sin^2 θ  =((cos^2 θ−sin^2 θ)/(cos^2 θ+cos^2 θ))  [∵cos^2 θ+sin^2 θ=1]  Divide numerator and Denominator by cos^2 θ  cos 2θ=(((cos^2 θ−sin^2 θ)/(cos^2 θ))/((cos^2 θ+sin^2 θ)/(cos^2 θ)))=((1−tan^2 θ)/(1+tan^2 θ))  ________  put θ=22(1/2)  cos 45°=((1−tan^2  22(1/2))/(1+tan^2 22(1/2)))  x=tan 22(1/2)  (1/( (√2)))=((1−x^2 )/(1+x^2 ))  1+x^2 =(√2)−(√2)x^2   (1+(√2))x^2 =(√2)−1  x^2 =(((√2)−1)/( (√2)+1))=((((√2)−1)((√2)−1))/(((√2)+1)((√2)−1)))=((((√2)−1)^2 )/(2−1))=((√2)−1)^2   ⇒x=±((√2)−1) or tan 22(1/2)=±((√2)−1)  Since 22(1/2)<90, tan 22(1/2)>0 so we discard the −ve root.  hence x=tan 22(1/2)=((√2)−1)
