Question

Prove that `(sin θ + "cosec"  θ)/(sin θ) = 2 + cot^2θ`.

Theorem

Solution

L.H.S. = `(sin θ + "cosec"  θ)/(sin θ)`

= `(sin θ)/(sin θ) + ("cosec"  θ)/(sin θ)`

= 1 + cosec θ × cosec θ   ...`[∵ "cosec"  θ = 1/(sin θ)]`

= 1 + cosec2θ

= 1 + 1 + cot2θ   ...[∵ 1 + cot2θ = cosec2θ]

= 2 + cot2θ

= R.H.S.

∴ `(sin θ + "cosec"  θ)/(sin θ) = 2 + cot^2θ`
