Solution

cot2A

Explanation:

`(1 + cot^2A)/(1 + tan^2A)`

= `("cosec"^2A)/(sec^2A)`

= `(1/(sin^2A))/(1/(cos^2A))`

= `(cos^2A)/(sin^2A)`

= cot2A

sin(45° + θ) – cos(45° – θ) is equal to ______.


Complete the following activity to prove:

cotθ + tanθ = cosecθ × secθ

Activity: L.H.S. = cotθ + tanθ

= `cosθ/sinθ + square/cosθ`

= `(square + sin^2theta)/(sinθ xx cosθ)`

= `1/(sinθ xx  cosθ)` ....... ∵ `square`

= `1/sinθ xx 1/cosθ`

= `square xx secθ`

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
