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.

Show that, cotθ + tanθ = cosecθ × secθ

Solution :

L.H.S. = cotθ + tanθ

= `cosθ/sinθ + sinθ/cosθ`

= `(square + square)/(sinθ xx cosθ)`

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

= `1/sinθ xx 1/square`

= cosecθ × secθ

L.H.S. = R.H.S

∴ cotθ + tanθ = cosecθ × secθ


If tan θ = `x/y`, then cos θ is equal to ______.


sec θ when expressed in term of cot θ, is equal to ______.
