उत्तर
We need to prove `sec^6 theta = tan^6 theta + 3 tan^2 theta sec^2 theta + 1`
Solving the L.H.S, we get
`sec^6 theta = (sec^2 theta)^3`
`= (1 + tan^2 theta)^3`
Further using the identity `(a + b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2`, we get
`(1 + tan^2 theta)^3 = 1 + tan^6 theta + 3(1)^2 (tan^2 theta) + 3(1)(tan^2 theta)^2`
`= 1 + tan^6 theta + 3 tan^2 theta + 3 tan^4 theta`
`= 1 + tan^6 theta + 3 tan^2 theta + 3 tan^4 theta`
`= 1 + tan^6 theta + 3 tan^2 theta (1 + tan^2 theta)`
`= 1 + tan^6 theta + 3 tan^2 theta sec^2 theta` (using `1 + tan^2 theta = sec^2 theta`)
Hence proved.

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)

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`
Statement 1: sin2θ + cos2θ = 1
Statement 2: cosec2θ + cot2θ = 1
