Question

if sectheta + tan theta =p
then find out second theta-tan theta
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/p is the answer for the given problem

Answer 2

Answer:

1/p

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

sec^2(x)-tan^2(x)=1

and we know a^2-b^2=(a+b)*(a-b)........(i)

let a=sec theta and b=tan theta

given a+b=p and  a^2-b^2=1

substitute in first equation

p*(a-b)=1

sec theta - tan theta = 1/p
