Prove the following identity :
`(cotA - cosecA)^2 = (1 - cosA)/(1 + cosA)`
Advertisements
उत्तर
LHS = `(cotA - cosecA)^2`
= `[cosA/sinA - 1/sinA]^2`
= `[(cosA - 1)/sinA]^2`
= `(cosA - 1)^2/sin^2A = (cosA - 1)^2/(1 - cos^2A)`
= `(-(1 - cosA))^2/((1 - cosA)(1 + cosA)) = ((1 - cosA)(1 - cosA))/((1 - cosA)(1 + cosA))`
= `(1 - cosA)/(1 + cosA)`
