उत्तर
L.H.S. = `sqrt((1 + cos A)/(1 - cos A))`
= `sqrt((1 + cos A)/(1 - cos A) xx (1 + cos A)/(1 + cos A))` ...[On rationalising the denominator]
= `sqrt((1 + cos A)^2/(1 - cos^2 A))`
= `sqrt((1 + cos A)^2/(sin^2 A)` ...`[(∵ sin^2A + cos^2A = 1),(∴ 1 - cos^2A = sin^2A)]`
= `(1 + cos A)/(sin A)`
= `1/(sin A) + (cos A)/(sin A)`
= cosec A + cot A
= R.H.S.
∴ `sqrt((1 + cos A)/(1 - cos A)) = "cosec" A + cot A`

Find the value of sin2θ + cos2θ

Solution:
In Δ ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠C = θ°
AB2 + BC2 = `square` .....(Pythagoras theorem)
Divide both sides by AC2
`"AB"^2/"AC"^2 + "BC"^2/"AC"^2 = "AC"^2/"AC"^2`
∴ `("AB"^2/"AC"^2) + ("BC"^2/"AC"^2) = 1`
But `"AB"/"AC" = square and "BC"/"AC" = square`
∴ `sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = square`
