Questions
Prove the following trigonometric identities.
`tan theta + 1/tan theta` = sec θ.cosec θ
Prove the following:
`tan theta + 1/tan theta` = sec θ.cosec θ
Advertisements
Solution
We know that `sec^2 theta - tan^2 theta = 1`
So,
`tan theta + 1/tan theta = (tan^2 theta + 1)/tan theta`
`= sec^2 theta/tan theta`
`= sec theta sec theta/tan theta`
`= sec theta = (1/cos theta)/(sin theta/cos theta)`
`= sec theta cosec theta`
