Solution
Here, `( cosec theta + cot theta )/( cosec theta - cot theta)`
= `((cosec theta + cot theta) ( cosec theta + cot theta ))/(( cosec theta - cot theta ) ( cosec theta + cot theta))`
=` ((cosec theta + cot theta)^2)/(( cosec ^2 theta - cot^2 theta))`
=`((cosec theta + cot theta )^2) /1`
=`(cosec theta + cot theta )^2`
Again , `( cosec theta + cot theta )^2`
= ` cosec^2 theta + cot^2 theta + 2 cosec theta cot theta `
=` 1+cot^2 theta + cot^2 theta + 2 cosec theta cot theta (∵ cosec^2 theta - cot^2 theta =1)`
=` 1+2 cot^2 theta + 2 cosec theta cot theta `
