Question
Prove that `sqrt((1 + cos A)/(1 - cos A)) = (tan A + sin A)/(tan A. sin A)`
Advertisements
Solution
LHS = `sqrt(((1 + cos A)(1 + cos A))/((1 - cos A)(1 + cos A)))`
= `sqrt((1 + cos A)^2/(1 - cos^2 A))`
= `sqrt((1 + cos^2 A + 2cos A)/sin^2 A`
= `(1 + cos A)/sin A`
RHS = `(tan A + sin A)/(tan A sin A)`
= `(sin A(1/cos A + 1))/((sin A/cos A xx sin A)`
= `(sin A( 1 + cos A))/cos A xx cos A/(sin A sin A)`
= `(1 + cos A)/sin A`
Hence proved.
