उत्तर
L.H.S. = cot θ + tan θ
L.H.S. = `costheta/sintheta + sintheta/costheta`
L.H.S. = `(cos^2theta + sin^2theta)/(sintheta costheta)`
[cos2 θ + sin2 θ = 1]
L.H.S. = `1/(sintheta costheta)`
Use Reciprocal Identities:
The expression can be split into `(1/sin θ) xx (1/cos θ)`.
`1/sin θ` = cosec θ
`1/cos θ` = sec θ
L.H.S. = cosec θ.sec θ
L.H.S. = sec θ.cosec θ
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

sec2θ = 1 + `square` ...[Fundamental tri. identity]
sec2θ = 1 + `square^2`
sec2θ = 1 + `square/576`
sec2θ = `square/576`
sec θ = `square`
cos θ = `square` ...`[cos theta = 1/sectheta]`

Find the value of sin2θ + cos2θ

Solution:
In Δ ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠C = θ°
AB2 + BC2 = `square` .....(Pythagoras theorem)
Divide both sides by AC2
`"AB"^2/"AC"^2 + "BC"^2/"AC"^2 = "AC"^2/"AC"^2`
∴ `("AB"^2/"AC"^2) + ("BC"^2/"AC"^2) = 1`
But `"AB"/"AC" = square and "BC"/"AC" = square`
∴ `sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = square`
