Prove that:
$ \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}=2 \sec \theta $
To do:
We have to prove that \( \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}=2 \sec \theta \).
Solution:
We know that,
$\sin ^{2} A+\cos^2 A=1$.......(i)
$\operatorname{cosec} A=\frac{1}{\sin A}$......(ii)
Therefore,
$\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)(1+\sin \theta)}{(1-\sin \theta)(1+\sin \theta)}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}{(1+\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)^{2}}{1-\sin ^{2} \theta}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin \theta)^{2}}{1-\sin ^{2} \theta}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)^{2}}{\cos ^{2} \theta}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin \theta)^{2}}{\cos ^{2} \theta}}$
$=\frac{1+\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}+\frac{1-\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$
$=\frac{1+\sin \theta+1-\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}=\frac{2}{\cos \theta}$
$=2 \sec \theta$
Hence proved.
