Prove the following trigonometric identities.
(sec2 θ − 1) (cosec2 θ − 1) = 1

उत्तर
We know that
`sec^2 theta - tan^2 theta = 1`
`cosec^2 theta - cot^2 theta = 1`
So,
`(sec^2 theta - 1)(cosec^2 theta - 1) = tan^2 theta xx cot^2 theta`
`= (tan theta xx cot theta)`
`= (tan theta xx 1/tan theta)^2`
`= (1)^2`
=1

If sec θ = `25/7`, find the value of tan θ.
Solution:
1 + tan2 θ = sec2 θ
∴ 1 + tan2 θ = `(25/7)^square`
∴ tan2 θ = `625/49 - square`
= `(625 - 49)/49`
= `square/49`
∴ tan θ = `square/7` ........(by taking square roots)
