Question
Prove that tan2Φ + cot2Φ + 2 = sec2Φ.cosec2Φ.

Solution
L.H.S. = tan2Φ + cot2Φ + 2
= tan2Φ + 1 + cot2Φ + 1
= sec2Φ + cosec2Φ
= `1/cos^2 Φ + 1/sin^2Φ`
= `(sin^2 Φ + cos^2 Φ)/(sin^2 Φ.cos^2Φ )`
= `1/(sin^2 Φ. cos^2 Φ )`
= cosec2Φ. sec2Φ
= R.H.S.
Hence proved.

Complete the following activity to prove:
cotθ + tanθ = cosecθ × secθ
Activity: L.H.S. = cotθ + tanθ
= `cosθ/sinθ + square/cosθ`
= `(square + sin^2theta)/(sinθ xx cosθ)`
= `1/(sinθ xx cosθ)` ....... ∵ `square`
= `1/sinθ xx 1/cosθ`
= `square xx secθ`
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
