Prove that sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`.

Proof: L.H.S. = sec θ + tan θ

= `1/square + square/square`

= `square/square`  ......`(∵ sec θ = 1/square, tan θ = square/square)`

= `((1 + sin θ) square)/(cos θ  square)`  ......[Multiplying `square` with the numerator and denominator]

= `(1^2 - square)/(cos θ  square)`

= `square/(cos θ  square)`

= `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)` = R.H.S.

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

∴ sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`
