Advertisements
उत्तर
`cos theta/(1 + sin theta)` = sec θ – tan θ
R.H.S. = sec θ – tan θ
= `1/cos theta - sin theta/cos theta`
= `(1 - sin theta)/costheta`
= `(1 - sin theta)/cos theta xx (1 + sin theta)/(1 + sin theta)`
= `(1 - sin^2 theta)/(cos theta(1 + sin theta)`
= `cos^2 theta/(cos theta(1 + sin theta))`
= `costheta/(1 + sintheta)`
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
∴ `cos theta/(1 + sin theta)` = sec θ – tan θ
Aliter:
L.H.S. = `cos theta/(1 - sin theta)` ...[conjugate (1 – sin θ)]
= `(cos theta(1 + sin theta))/((1 - sin theta)(1 + sin theta))`
= `(cos theta(1 + sin theta))/((1 - sin^2 theta))`
= `(cos theta (1 + sin theta))/(cos^2 theta)`
= `(1 + sin theta)/costheta`
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
