Question
Prove the following trigonometric identities.
`(cos^2 theta)/sin theta - cosec theta + sin theta = 0`
Advertisements
Solution
We have to prove `cos^2 theta/sin theta - cosec theta + sin theta = 0`
We know that `sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = 1`
So,
`cos^2 theta/sin theta - cosec theta + sin theta = (cos^2 theta/sin theta - cosec theta) = sin theta`
`= (cos^2 theta/sin theta - 1/sin theta) = sin theta`
`= ((cos^2 theta - 1)/sin theta) + sin theta`
`= ((-sin^2 theta )/sin theta) + sin theta`
`= - sin theta = sin theta`
= 0

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`
