Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider 1/(secA-tanA) - 1/cosA
Multiplying the first term Numerator and denominator by (secA+tanA), we get
=(secA + tanA)/(secA+tanA)(secA-tanA) -1/cosA
SInce sec²A - tan²A = 1, we get
(secA + tan A) - secA
= tanA
Now adding and subtracting sec A we get,
tanA-secA +secA
=secA - (secA-tanA)
We can write (secA-tanA) as 1/secA+tanA
=secA-1/(secA+tanA)
=1/cosA-1/secA+tanA
