Question
Prove that `tan A/(1 + tan^2 A)^2 + cot A/(1 + cot^2 A)^2 = sin A.cos A`
Advertisements
Solution
LHS = `tan A/(1 + tan^2 A)^2 + cot A/(1 + cot^2 A)^2`
= `tan A/(sec^2 A)^2 + cot A/(cosec^2 A)^2`
= `sin A/cos A xx cos^2 A xx cos^2 A + cos A/sin A xx sin^2 A xx sin^2 A`
= sin A.cos3A + sin3A.cos A
= sin A cos A (cos2 A + sin2 A)
= sin A. cos A x 1
= sin A. cos A
= RHS
Hence proved.
