    Simplify: cot⁡θcosec⁡θ+1+cosec⁡θ+1cot⁡θ\frac{\cot \theta}{\cosec \theta + 1} + \frac{\cosec \theta + 1}{\cot \theta}cosecθ+1cotθ​+cotθcosecθ+1​
    Question

    Simplify: cotθcosecθ+1+cosecθ+1cotθ\frac{\cot \theta}{\cosec \theta + 1} + \frac{\cosec \theta + 1}{\cot \theta}

    A.

    2 ccosecθcosec \theta

    B.

    sinθsin \theta​​

    C.

    secθsec\theta​​

    D.

    cosθcos\theta

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    cotθcosecθ+1+cosecθ+1cotθ\frac{\cot \theta}{\cosec \theta + 1} + \frac{\cosec \theta + 1}{\cot \theta} 
    Formula Used:
    1+cot2θ=cosec2θ1+ \cot^2\theta = cosec^2 \theta​​
    Solution:
    cotθcosecθ+1+cosecθ+1cotθ =cot2θ+(cosecθ+1)2(cosecθ+1)cotθ =cot2θ+cosec2θ+1+2cosecθ(cosecθ+1)cotθ =cosec2θ+cot2θ+2cosecθ+1(cosecθ+1)cotθ =2cosecθ(cosecθ+1)cotθ(cosecθ+1) =2cosecθcotθ =2×1sinθ×sinθcosθ=2secθ\frac{\cot \theta}{\cosec \theta + 1} + \frac{\cosec \theta + 1}{\cot \theta}\\\ \\= \frac{\cot^2 \theta + (\cosec \theta + 1)^2}{(\cosec \theta + 1) \cdot \cot \theta}\\\ \\= \frac{\cot^2 \theta + \cosec^2 \theta + 1 + 2\cosec \theta}{(\cosec \theta + 1) \cdot \cot \theta}\\\ \\= \frac{\cosec^2 \theta + \cot^2 \theta + 2\cosec \theta + 1}{(\cosec \theta + 1) \cdot \cot \theta }\\\ \\ = \frac{2\cosec \theta (\cosec \theta + 1)}{\cot \theta (\cosec \theta + 1) } \\\ \\= \frac{2\cosec \theta}{\cot \theta}\\\ \\= 2 \times \frac{1}{\sin\theta} \times \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos\theta}\\= 2 \sec \theta​​
