    Find (1 - sin² θ) (tan²θ + 1) - 1.
    Question

    Find (1 - sin² θ) (tan²θ + 1) - 1.

    A.

    2

    B.

    cosec² θ

    C.

    0

    D.

    -2

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    (1sin2θ)(tan2θ+1)1(1 - \sin^2 \theta)(\tan^2 \theta + 1) - 1​​
    Formula Used:
    1sin2θ=cos2θtan2θ+1=sec2θ1 - \sin^2 \theta = \cos^2 \theta \\\tan^2 \theta + 1 = \sec^2 \theta​​
    Solution:
    Substituting the identities into the expression:
    (1sin2θ)(tan2θ+1)1=cos2θsec2θ1=11=0(1 - \sin^2 \theta)(\tan^2 \theta + 1) - 1\\ = \cos^2 \theta \cdot \sec^2 \theta – 1\\ =1 - 1 \\= 0​​
    Thus, the value of the expression is 0.
