Can someone help me out ! got stuck in this question for an hour.

Reil [10]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering $\vec{u}, \vec{v}, \vec{w} \in V^3 \lambda \in \mathbb{R}$ , then

$\Vert \vec{u} \cdot \vec{v}\Vert \leq \Vert\vec{u}\Vert \Vert\vec{v}\Vert$ we have $(\vec{u} \cdot \vec{v})^2 \leq (\vec{u} \cdot \vec{u})(\vec{v} \cdot \vec{v}) \quad$$

This is the Cauchy–Schwarz Inequality, therefore

$\left(\sum_{i=1}^{n} u_i v_i \right)^2 \leq \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n} u_i \right)^2 \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n} v_i \right)^2$

We have the equation

$\dfrac{\sin ^4 x }{a} + \dfrac{\cos^4 x }{b} = \dfrac{1}{a+b}, a,b\in\mathbb{N}$

We can use the Cauchy–Schwarz Inequality because $a$ and $b$ are greater than 0. In fact, $a>0 \wedge b>0 \implies ab>0$ . Using the Cauchy–Schwarz Inequality, we have

$\dfrac{\sin ^4 x }{a} + \dfrac{\cos^4 x }{b} =\dfrac{(\sin^2 x)^2}{a}+\dfrac{(\cos^2 x)}{b}\geq \dfrac{(\sin^2 x+\cos^2 x)^2}{a+b} = \dfrac{1}{a+b}$

and the equation holds for

$\dfrac{\sin^2{x}}{a}=\dfrac{\cos^2{x}}{b}=\dfrac{1}{a+b}$

$\implies\quad \sin^2 x = \dfrac{a}{a+b} \text{ and }\cos^2 x = \dfrac{b}{a+b}$

Therefore, once we can write

$\sin^2 x = \dfrac{a}{a+b} \implies \sin^{4n}x = \dfrac{a^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}} \implies\dfrac{\sin^{4n}x }{a^{2n-1}} = \dfrac{a^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot a^{2n-1}}$

It is the same thing for cosine, thus

$\cos^2 x = \dfrac{b}{a+b} \implies \dfrac{\cos^{4n}x }{b^{2n-1}} = \dfrac{b^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot b^{2n-1}}$

Once

$\dfrac{a^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot a^{2n-1}}+ \dfrac{b^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot b^{2n-1}} =\dfrac{a^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n} \cdot \dfrac{a^{2n}}{a} } + \dfrac{b^{2n}}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot \dfrac{b^{2n}}{b} }$

$=\dfrac{1}{(a+b)^{2n} \cdot \dfrac{1}{a} } + \dfrac{1}{(a+b)^{2n}\cdot \dfrac{1}{b} } = \dfrac{a}{(a+b)^{2n} } + \dfrac{b}{(a+b)^{2n} } = \dfrac{a+b}{(a+b)^{2n} }$
