Question
Prove the following.
cot2θ – tan2θ = cosec2θ – sec2θ
Advertisements
Solution
L.H.S = \[\cot^2 \theta - \tan^2 \theta\]
[1 + tan2θ = sec2θ, 1 + cot2θ = coses2θ]
\[ = \left( {cosec}^2 \theta - 1 \right) - \left( \sec^2 \theta - 1 \right)\]
\[ = {cosec}^2 \theta - 1 - \sec^2 \theta + 1\]
\[ = {cosec}^2 \theta - \sec^2 \theta\]
= R.H.S
