उत्तर
LHS = `sqrt((1/cos theta - 1)/(1/cos theta + 1)) + sqrt((1/cos theta +1)/(1/cos theta - 1))`
`= sqrt(((1 - cos theta)/cos theta)/((1+ cos theta)/cos theta)) + sqrt(((1 + cos theta)/cos theta)/((1 - cos theta)/cos theta)`
`= sqrt((1 - cos theta)/(1 + cos theta)) +sqrt((1 + cos theta)/(1 - cos theta))`
`= sqrt((1 - cos theta)/(1 + cos theta) xx (1 - cos theta)/(1 - cos theta)) + sqrt((1 + cos theta)/(1 - cos theta) xx (1 + cos theta)/(1 + cos theta))`
`= sqrt((1 - cos theta)^2/(1 - cos^2 theta)) + sqrt((1 + cos theta)^2/(1 - cos^2 theta))`
`=(1 - cos theta)/sin theta + (1 + cos theta)/sin theta`
`= (1 - cos theta + 1 + cos theta)/sin theta`
`= 2/sin theta`
= 2 cosec

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)
