Q) Prove that, Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

Ans: 2 methods to solve this question:

1st Method:

LHS      =         Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

Multiplying numerator & denominator by (sin θ + cos θ + 1), we get:

Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ – x Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

We know that sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1

Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –          =       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –         =         RHS             Hence Proved!

2nd Method:

LHS     =          Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

We know that, 1 + tan2 θ = sec2 θ

Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –      1 =  sec2 θ – tan2 θ

Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ – = Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       tan θ + sec θ

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –

=       Prove that, (tanθ + secθ-1)/(tanθ –         =         RHS             Hence Proved!
