The value of $2({\sin ^6}\theta + {\cos ^6}\theta ) - 3({\sin ^4}\theta + {\cos ^4}\theta ) + 1$ is

A

$2$

B

$0$

C

$4$

D

$6$

Solution

(b) ${({\sin ^2}\theta + {\cos ^2}\theta )^3} = {(1)^3}$

$ \Rightarrow \,\,{\sin ^6}\theta + {\cos ^6}\theta + 3\,{\sin ^2}\theta \,{\cos ^2}\theta = 1$

and ${\sin ^4}\theta + {\cos ^4}\theta + 2\,{\sin ^2}\theta \,{\cos ^2}\theta = 1$

Both gives, $2\,\,({\sin ^6}\theta + {\cos ^6}\theta ) – 3\,({\sin ^4}\theta + {\cos ^4}\theta ) + 1 = 0$.
