${\cos ^2}\left( {\frac{\pi }{6} + \theta } \right) - {\sin ^2}\left( {\frac{\pi }{6} - \theta } \right) = $
  • $\frac{1}{2}\cos 2\theta $
  • B
    $0$
  • C
    $ - \frac{1}{2}\cos 2\,\theta $
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{2}\cos 2\theta $
a
(a) ${\cos ^2}\left( {\frac{\pi }{6} + \theta } \right) - {\sin ^2}\left( {\frac{\pi }{6} - \theta } \right)$

$ = \cos \left( {\frac{\pi }{6} + \theta + \frac{\pi }{6} - \theta } \right)\cos \left( {\frac{\pi }{6} + \theta - \frac{\pi }{6} + \theta } \right)$

                                                 $[ \because {\cos ^2}A - {\sin ^2}B = \cos (A + B)\cos (A - B)]$ 

$ = \cos \frac{{2\pi }}{6}\cos 2\theta = \frac{1}{2}\cos 2\theta $.
