Question

if sin theta + cos theta =p and sec theta + cosec theta =q show that q(p-1)=2p​

Answer 1

Answer:

So this question is prove that

Answer 2

$\textsf{\textbf{Question - }}\\\textsf{\hspace{1.5em} If \sin \theta + \cos \theta = p and \sec \theta + \csc \theta = q , then prove that q(p^2 - 1) = 2p .}$

$\textsf{\textbf{Answer:}}$

    ${\bf Given,}\\{\bf \hspace{3em} \sin \theta + \cos \theta = p \hspace{2em} ... (i) \: \: and \: \: \sec \theta + \csc \theta = q \hspace{2em} ... (ii)}\\{\bf \Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} \dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} + \dfrac{1}{\sin \theta} = q \hspace{1.5em} \Rightarrow \:\: \dfrac{\sin \theta + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}}\\{ \Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} \dfrac{p}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = q \hspace{15em} {\bf (using (i))}}\\{\Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} \sin \theta \cos \theta = \dfrac{p}{q}}$

                                                                                                           ${\bf ... \:(iii)}$

    $\textsf{On squaring (i), we get}\\{\Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} (\sin \theta + cos \theta)^2 = p^2 = (\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta) + 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta = p^2}\\{\Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} 1 + 2 \dfrac{p}{q} = p^2 \hspace{18em} {\bf (using (iii))}}\\{\Rightarrow \hspace{1.6em} \dfrac{2p}{q} = p^2 - 1 \: \: \: \Rightarrow \: \: \: 2p = q(p^2 + 1)}$
