Correct answer: D

  1. Use the given angle ranges

Since 0<α,β<π40<\alpha,\beta<\dfrac{\pi}{4}0<α,β<4π​, we have:

  • 0<α+β<π20<\alpha+\beta<\dfrac{\pi}{2}0<α+β<2π​, so cos⁡(α+β)>0\cos(\alpha+\beta)>0cos(α+β)>0
  • −π4<α−β<π4-\dfrac{\pi}{4}<\alpha-\beta<\dfrac{\pi}{4}−4π​<α−β<4π​, and given sin⁡(α−β)=513>0\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\dfrac{5}{13}>0sin(α−β)=135​>0, hence α−β∈(0,π4)\alpha-\beta\in\left(0,\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)α−β∈(0,4π​), so cos⁡(α−β)>0\cos(\alpha-\beta)>0cos(α−β)>0

Thus we can determine both sine and cosine of these angles positively.

  1. Find sin⁡(α+β)\sin(\alpha+\beta)sin(α+β) and cos⁡(α−β)\cos(\alpha-\beta)cos(α−β)

Given cos⁡(α+β)=35\cos(\alpha+\beta)=\frac{3}{5}cos(α+β)=53​ so sin⁡(α+β)=1−(35)2=45\sin(\alpha+\beta)=\sqrt{1-\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^2}=\frac{4}{5}sin(α+β)=1−(53​)2​=54​ (because α+β∈(0,π/2)\alpha+\beta\in(0,\pi/2)α+β∈(0,π/2)).

Also given sin⁡(α−β)=513\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\frac{5}{13}sin(α−β)=135​ so cos⁡(α−β)=1−(513)2=1213\cos(\alpha-\beta)=\sqrt{1-\left(\frac{5}{13}\right)^2}=\frac{12}{13}cos(α−β)=1−(135​)2​=1312​ (because α−β∈(0,π/4)\alpha-\beta\in(0,\pi/4)α−β∈(0,π/4)).

  1. Use 2α=(α+β)+(α−β)2\alpha=(\alpha+\beta)+(\alpha-\beta)2α=(α+β)+(α−β)

Let X=α+β,Y=α−βX=\alpha+\beta,\qquad Y=\alpha-\betaX=α+β,Y=α−β Then 2α=X+Y2\alpha=X+Y2α=X+Y Hence, tan⁡(2α)=tan⁡(X+Y)=tan⁡X+tan⁡Y1−tan⁡Xtan⁡Y\tan(2\alpha)=\tan(X+Y)=\frac{\tan X+\tan Y}{1-\tan X\tan Y}tan(2α)=tan(X+Y)=1−tanXtanYtanX+tanY​

First compute: tan⁡X=sin⁡Xcos⁡X=4/53/5=43\tan X=\frac{\sin X}{\cos X}=\frac{4/5}{3/5}=\frac{4}{3}tanX=cosXsinX​=3/54/5​=34​ tan⁡Y=sin⁡Ycos⁡Y=5/1312/13=512\tan Y=\frac{\sin Y}{\cos Y}=\frac{5/13}{12/13}=\frac{5}{12}tanY=cosYsinY​=12/135/13​=125​

Therefore, tan⁡(2α)=43+5121−43⋅512\tan(2\alpha)=\frac{\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5}{12}}{1-\frac{4}{3}\cdot\frac{5}{12}}tan(2α)=1−34​⋅125​34​+125​​

  1. Simplify

Numerator: 43+512=1612+512=2112=74\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5}{12}=\frac{16}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=\frac{21}{12}=\frac{7}{4}34​+125​=1216​+125​=1221​=47​

Denominator: 1−2036=1−59=491-\frac{20}{36}=1-\frac{5}{9}=\frac{4}{9}1−3620​=1−95​=94​

So, tan⁡(2α)=7/44/9=74⋅94=6316\tan(2\alpha)=\frac{7/4}{4/9}=\frac{7}{4}\cdot\frac{9}{4}=\frac{63}{16}tan(2α)=4/97/4​=47​⋅49​=1663​

  1. Match with options

tan⁡(2α)=6316\tan(2\alpha)=\frac{63}{16}tan(2α)=1663​ So the correct option is D.
