प्रश्न
Prove the following identities:
`1/(secA + tanA) = secA - tanA`
Advertisements
उत्तर १
L.H.S. = `1/(secA + tanA)`
= `1/(1/cosA + sinA/cosA)`
= `1/((1 + sinA)/cosA)`
= `cosA/(1 + sinA) xx (1 - sinA)/(1 + sinA)`
= `(cosA(1 - sinA))/((1)^2 - sin^2A)`
= `(cosA(1 - sinA))/cos^2A`
= `1/cosA - sinA/cosA`
= sec A – tan A
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence proved.
उत्तर २
L.H.S = `1/(secA + tanA)`
= `((secA - tanA))/((secA + tanA)(secA - tanA))` ...((Multiply Num. and Deno. by sec A – tan A)
= `(secA - tanA)/(sec^2A - tan^2A)`
= `(secA - tanA)/1` ...[∵ sec2 A – tan2 A = 1]
= sec A – tan A
= R.H.S.
