We know that `tan theta = "ЁЭСЬЁЭСЭЁЭСЭЁЭСЬЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭСбЁЭСТ ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ"/"ЁЭСОЁЭССЁЭСЧЁЭСОЁЭСРЁЭСТЁЭСЫЁЭСб ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ" = 8/15`
Now consider a right-angled Δle ABC.
By applying Pythagoras theorem
ЁЭР┤ЁЭР╢2 = ЁЭР┤ЁЭР╡2 + ЁЭР╡ЁЭР╢2
ЁЭСе2 = 82 + 152
ЁЭСе2 = 225 + 64 = 289
`x = sqrt289 = 17`
`sin theta = "ЁЭСЬЁЭСЭЁЭСЭЁЭСЬЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭСбЁЭСТ ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ"/"тДОЁЭСжЁЭСЭЁЭСЬЁЭСбЁЭСТЁЭСЫЁЭСвЁЭСаЁЭСТ" = 8/17`
`cos theta = "ЁЭСОЁЭССЁЭСЧЁЭСОЁЭСРЁЭСТЁЭСЫЁЭСб ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ"/"тДОЁЭСжЁЭСЭЁЭСЬЁЭСбЁЭСТЁЭСЫЁЭСвЁЭСаЁЭСТ" = 15/17`
`tan theta = "ЁЭСЬЁЭСЭЁЭСЭЁЭСЬЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭСбЁЭСТ ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ"/"ЁЭСОЁЭССЁЭСЧЁЭСОЁЭСРЁЭСТЁЭСЫЁЭСб ЁЭСаЁЭСЦЁЭССЁЭСТ" = 8/15`
`cot theta = 1/tan theta = 1/(8/15) = 15/8`
`cosec theta = 1/sin theta = (1/8)/17 = 17/8`
`sec theta = 1/cos theta= (1/15)/17 = 17/15`

A ladder rests against a vertical wall at an inclination α to the horizontal. Its foot is pulled away from the wall through a distance p so that its upper end slides a distance q down the wall and then the ladder makes an angle β to the horizontal. Show that `p/q = (cos β - cos α)/(sin α - sin β)`
Prove that sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`.
Proof: L.H.S. = sec θ + tan θ
= `1/square + square/square`
= `square/square` ......`(тИ╡ sec θ = 1/square, tan θ = square/square)`
= `((1 + sin θ) square)/(cos θ square)` ......[Multiplying `square` with the numerator and denominator]
= `(1^2 - square)/(cos θ square)`
= `square/(cos θ square)`
= `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)` = R.H.S.
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
∴ sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`
Prove that `tan θ/(1 - cot θ) + cot θ/(1 - tanθ)` = 1 + sec θ cosec θ
