Question

If tanθ\tan \theta​ = 1 (θ\theta  is an acute angle) then the value of 2sinθcosθcosec2θ2 \sin \theta \cos \theta - \cosec^2 \theta​  is: 

A.

-1

B.

1

C.

-3

D.

1-√2

Correct option is A

Given:

tanθ=1\tan \theta = 1​, and θ is an acute angle.

Formula Used:

tan45°=1,sin45°=12,cos45°=12\tan 45\degree = 1 ,\quad \sin45\degree = \frac1{\sqrt2},\quad \cos45\degree = \frac1{\sqrt2}

cosec45°=2\cosec 45\degree = \sqrt2​​

Solution:

From,

tanθ=1\tan \theta = 1​​

θ=45\theta = 45^\circ​ (since it is an acute angle)

Now, 

2sinθcosθcosec2θ =2sin45°cos45°cosec245° =2×12×12(2)2 =12=12\sin\theta \cos\theta - \cosec^2 \theta\\ \ \\ = 2\sin45\degree \cos45\degree - \cosec^2 45\degree\\ \ \\ = 2 \times \frac1{\sqrt2}\times \frac1{\sqrt2}- (\sqrt{2})^2 \\ \ \\ = 1-2 = -1​​
