Solution
Given:
`cosec^2θ (1+cosθ)(1-cosθ)=λ`
⇒ `cosec^2θ (1+cosθ)(1-cosθ)=λ`
⇒ `cosec^2θ(1-cos^2θ)=λ`
⇒`cosec^θ sin^2θ=λ`
⇒`1/sin^2θxx sin^2θ=λ`
⇒` 1=λ`
⇒`λ=1`
Thus, the value of λ is 1.

If cot θ = `40/9`, find the values of cosec θ and sinθ,
We have, 1 + cot2θ = cosec2θ
1 + `square` = cosec2θ
1 + `square` = cosec2θ
`(square + square)/square` = cosec2θ
`square/square` = cosec2θ ......[Taking root on the both side]
cosec θ = `41/9`
and sin θ = `1/("cosec" θ)`
sin θ = `1/square`
∴ sin θ = `9/41`
The value is cosec θ = `41/9`, and sin θ = `9/41`
