Prove that ` sqrt( sec^(2) theta + "cosec"^(2) theta )= tan theta + cot theta . ` |
|
Answer» We have `LHS= sqrt( sec^(2) theta + "cosec"^(2) theta )` ` = sqrt((1+ tan^(2)theta)+(1+cot^(2)theta))= sqrt(tan^(2) theta + cot^(2)theta +2)` `= sqrt(tan^(2)theta + cot^(2)theta+ 2 tan theta * cot theta) " "[ because tan theta * cot theta =1] ` `=sqrt((tan theta + cot theta)^(2)) = tan theta + cot theta = RHS. ` ` therefore LHS = RHS. ` |
