Correct option is B
Given:
A is an acute angle of triangle ABC
cosA+sinA−1cosA−sinA+1
Formula Used:
sinAcosA=cotA 1+cot2A=cosec2A
Solution:
Divide numerator and denominator by sin A.
= sinAcosA+1−sinA1sinAcosA−1+sinA1
Substitute sinAcosA=cotA and sinA1=cosecA
cotA+1−cosecAcotA−1+cosecA .........(1)
Using the identity 1=cosec2A−cot2A in the numerator;
cotA+cosecA−1=(cotA+cosecA)−(cosec2A−cot2A)
cotA+cosecA−1=(cotA+cosecA)−(cosecA−cotA)(cosecA+cotA) = (cotA+cosecA)(1−cosecA+cotA)
Putting Simplified numerator in equation (1)
=cotA+1−cosecA(cotA+cosecA)(1−cosecA+cotA)
= cotA+cosecA
Alternate Method:
A is acute, So putting A = 30°
cosA+sinA−1cosA−sinA+1 =23+21−123−21+1=3+2
From option(b);
cotA+cosecA=cot30°+cosec30°=3+2
