Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 0.96 \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, \(\sin \left(2 \sin ^{-1} 0.8\right)\)
Let \(\sin ^{-1} 0.8=\theta \Rightarrow \sin \theta=0.8\)
So, \(\cos \theta=\sqrt{1-\sin ^{2} \theta}=0.6\)
We know that, \(\sin 2 \theta=2 \sin \theta \cos \theta\)
\(=2 \times 0.8 \times 0.6=1.6 \times 0.6\)
\(=0.96\)
