उत्तर
Given , m = a secA + b tanA and n = a tanA + b secA
`m^2 - n^2 = (asecA + btanA)^2 - (atanA + bsecA)^2`
⇒ `a^2sec^2A + b^2tan^2A + 2ab secAtanA - (a^2tan^2A + b^2 sec^2A + 2ab secAtanA)`
⇒ `sec^2A(a^2 - b^2) + tan^2A(b^2 - a^2) = (a^2 - b^2) [sec^2A - tan^2A]`
⇒ `(a^2 - b^2) ["Since" sec^2A - tan^2A = 1]`
Hence , `m^2 - n^2 = a^2 - b^2`
