Answer:

Proved below.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the properties of trigonometric ratios :

    sin( 90 - A ) = cosA

     tanA = sinA / cosA

     cos^2 A = 1 - sin^2 A

Here,

⇒ sin( 90 - A )  sinA / tanA - 1

⇒ cosA sinA / tanA - 1

⇒  cosA sinA / ( sinA / cosA ) - 1

⇒ cosA / ( 1 / cosA ) - 1

⇒ cosA x cosA - 1

⇒ cos^2 A - 1

⇒ 1 - sin^2 A - 1

⇒ - sin^2 A.

     RHS = LHS.

QuestioN :

Prove that,

 \frac{sin(90 - a)sin \: a}{tan \: a}  - 1 =  -  {sin}^{2} a

SolutioN :

sin(90-a)=cos a

★tan a = sin a /cos a

★cos²a-1 = - sin²a

Taking L.H.S,

 \frac{sin(90 - a)sin \: a}{tan \:<strong> </strong>a} - 1  \\  =  \frac{cos \: a  \: .\: sin \: a}{ \frac{sin \: a}{cos \: a} } - 1   \\  =  \frac{cos \: a. \: sin \: a. \: cos \: a}{sin \: a}  - 1 \\  =  {cos}^{2} a - 1

We know cos²a - 1 = -sin²a

 =   { - sin}^{2} a

L.H.S = R.H.S [Proved]
