Question

Expression 1+sinθ1sinθ \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin\theta}{1-\sin\theta}}​ is equal to:

A.

secθ - cot θ

B.

secθ - tan⁡θ

C.

sec θ + tan θ

D.

cosec θ + cotθ

Correct option is C

Given:
Expression: 1+sinθ1sinθ \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin\theta}{1-\sin\theta}}​​
Formula Used:
sin2θ+cos2θ=1\sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1​​

secθ=1cosθ\sec\theta = \frac{1}{\cos\theta}​​

tanθ=sinθcosθ\tan\theta = \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}​​
Solution:
Multiply the numerator and the denominator inside the square root by (1+sinθ):(1 + \sin\theta):​​
=(1+sinθ)(1+sinθ)(1sinθ)(1+sinθ)= \sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\theta)(1+\sin\theta)}{(1-\sin\theta)(1+\sin\theta)}}​​

=(1+sinθ)21sin2θ= \sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\theta)^2}{1-\sin^2\theta}}​​

Since 1sin2θ=cos2θ:1-\sin^2\theta = \cos^2\theta:​​

=(1+sinθ)2cos2θ= \sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\theta)^2}{\cos^2\theta}}​​
Taking the square root:
=1+sinθcosθ= \frac{1+\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}​​
Separate the terms:
=1cosθ+sinθcosθ= \frac{1}{\cos\theta} + \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}​​
=secθ+tanθ= \sec\theta + \tan\theta​​
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (c)
