If $sin\theta-cos\theta=0$, then find the value of $sin^{4}\theta+cos^{4}\theta$.
Given: $sin\theta-cos\theta=0$.
To do: To find the value of $sin^{4}\theta+cos^{4}\theta$.
Solution:
$sin\theta-cos\theta = 0$
$\Rightarrow sin\theta= cos\theta$
$\Rightarrow \frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} = 1$
$\Rightarrow tan\theta = 1$
As known, $tan45^{o} = 1$
So,
$tan\theta=tan45^{o}$
$\theta = 45^{o}$
$sin45^{o} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} cos45^{o} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
$sin^{4}\theta+cos^{4}\theta = ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})^{4}+( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})^{4}$
$= \frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4} =\frac{2}{4} =\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$
