  1. The value of the expression 2 (sin6θ + cos6θ) –3 (sin4θ + cos4θ) + 1 is
    1. –1
    2. 0
    3. 1
    4. 2
Correct Option: B

2 (sin6θ + cos6θ) – 3 (sin4θ + cos4θ) + 1
= 2 {(sin²θ + cos²θ)3 –3 sin²q cos²θ (sin²θ + cos²θ)} – 3 {(sin²θ + cos²θ)2 – 2 sin²θ . cos²θ} + 1
= 2 (1 – 3 sin²θ . cos²θ) – 3 (1 – 2 sin²θ . cos²θ) + 1
= 2 – 6 sin²θ . cos²θ – 3 + 6 sin²θ . cos²θ + 1
= 3 – 3 = 0
