Class 12 Maths · Inverse Trigonometric Functions · Short Answer #88

Evaluate \(\sin(2\sin^{-1}0.6)\).

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 24/25=0.96
  1. Let θ=arcsin0.6=arcsin(3/5), so sin θ=3/5.
  2. The principal θ is acute, hence cos θ=√(1−9/25)=4/5. Apply sin2θ=2sin θ cos θ=2·3/5·4/5.
  3. Thus the value is 24/25=0.96.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] Let θ=arcsin0.6=arcsin(3/5), so sin θ=3/5.
  • [1 mark] The principal θ is acute, hence cos θ=√(1−9/25)=4/5. Apply sin2θ=2sin θ cos θ=2·3/5·4/5.
  • [0.5 marks] Thus the value is 24/25=0.96.
