IPMAT 2019 - Quantitative Aptitude

sin x + sin y = sinx cosy + cosx siny
sin x (1 – cosy) + siny = cosx siny
Squaring both sides, 
sin2x (1 – cosy)2 + sin2 y + 2 sin x sin y (1 – cos y) = cos2 x sin2 y
Rearranging the terms, 
2 sin x (1 – cos y) (sin x + sin y) = 0
sin x = 0, cos y = 1, sin (x + y) = 0
If sin x = 0, x = 0   ............ (1)
If cos y = 1, y = 0  ............  (2)
If sin(x + y) = 0, x + y = 0, x = - y  ............(3)
Now, |x| + |y| = 1
∴ from (1), (0, 1) and (0, -1)
From (2), (1, 0) and (-1, 0)
