Question:

$\frac{1}{1+cos(90^o-\theta )}+\frac{1}{1-cos(90^o - \theta )}$=_________.

Options:

2sec2θ

1

0

2tan2θ

Correct Answer:

2sec2θ

Explanation:

$\frac{1}{1+cos(90^o-\theta )}+\frac{1}{1-cos(90^o - \theta )}$

We know , cos (90º - θ ) = sin θ

= \(\frac{1}{1 + sin θ}\) + \(\frac{1}{1 - sin θ}\)

= \(\frac{2}{1 - sin^2θ}\)

= \(\frac{2}{cos^2θ}\)

= 2 sec2 θ
