Solution
This statement is True.
Explanation:
Given that: cosecx = 1 + cotx
⇒ `1/sinx = 1 + cosx/sinx`
⇒ `1/sinx = 1 + (sinx + cosx)/sinx`
⇒ sinx + cosx = 1
⇒ `1/sqrt(2) sinx + 1/sqrt(2) cosx = 1/sqrt(2)`
⇒ `sin pi/4 sinx + cos pi/4 cos x = 1/sqrt(2)`
⇒ `cos(x - pi/4) = 1/sqrt(2)`
⇒ `cos(x - pi/4) = cos pi/4`
x = `2"n"pi + pi/4 + pi/4`
⇒ x = `2"n"pi + pi/2`
or x = `2"n"pi + pi/4 - pi/4`
⇒ x = 2nπ.
