(i) ( cos A–sin A+1)/( cos A +sin A–1) = cosec A + cot A, using the identity cosec2A = 1+cot2A.
(ii)
Solutions:
(i) (cos A–sin A+1)/(cos A+sin A–1) = cosec A + cot A, using the identity cosec2A = 1+cot2A.
Using the identity function, cosec2A = 1+cot2A, let’s prove the above equation.
L.H.S. = (cos A–sin A+1)/(cos A+sin A–1)
We get by dividing the numerator and denominator by sin A.
= (cos A–sin A+1)/sin A/(cos A+sin A–1)/sin A
We are aware that cos A/sin A = cot A and 1/sin A = cosec A
= (cot A – 1 + cosec A)/(cot A+ 1 – cosec A)
= (cot A – cosec2A + cot2A + cosec A)/(cot A+ 1 – cosec A) (using cosec2A – cot2A = 1
= [(cot A + cosec A) – (cosec2A – cot2A)]/(cot A+ 1 – cosec A)
= [(cot A + cosec A) – (cosec A + cot A)(cosec A – cot A)]/(1 – cosec A + cot A)
= (cot A + cosec A)(1 – cosec A + cot A)/(1 – cosec A + cot A)
= cot A + cosec A = R.H.S.
As a result, (cos A–sin A+1)/(cos A+sin A–1) = cosec A + cot A
Hence Proved.
(ii)
L.H.S. numerator and denominator are first divided by cos A,
We are aware that, 1/cos A = sec A and sin A/ cos A = tan A so it becomes,
= √(sec A+ tan A)/(sec A-tan A)
Now, with the help of rationalization, we may arrive at
= (sec A + tan A)/1
= sec A + tan A = R.H.S
As a result, hence proved.
