Question

Solve the following.

1+1+cos θsin θsin2 θ1+cos θsin θ1cos θ=1+\frac{1+cos\spaceθ}{sin\spaceθ}-\frac{sin^2\spaceθ}{1+cos\spaceθ}-\frac{sin\spaceθ}{1-cos\spaceθ}= ?​

A.

cos θ

B.

- cos θ

C.

sin θ

D.

- sin θ

Correct option is A

Given:

1+1+cosθsinθsin2θ1+cosθsinθ1cosθ1 + \frac{1 + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta} - \frac{\sin^2 \theta}{1 + \cos \theta} - \frac{\sin \theta}{1 - \cos \theta} 

Formula Used:
Trigonometric Identities:
sin2θ+cos2θ=1 \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 ​​
Solution:
The third term is sin2θ1+cosθ\frac{\sin^2 \theta}{1 + \cos \theta} ​​

1cos2θ1+cosθ=(1cosθ)(1+cosθ)1+cosθ=1cosθ\frac{1 - \cos^2 \theta}{1 + \cos \theta} = \frac{(1 - \cos \theta)(1 + \cos \theta)}{1 + \cos \theta} = 1 - \cos \theta

The fourth term is sinθ1cosθ\frac{\sin \theta}{1 - \cos \theta} ​​
Multiply numerator and denominator by (1 + cosθ)os \theta)​ (conjugate):
sinθ(1+cosθ)(1cosθ)(1+cosθ)=sinθ(1+cosθ)1cos2θ=sinθ(1+cosθ)sin2θ=1+cosθsinθ\frac{\sin \theta (1 + \cos \theta)}{(1 - \cos \theta)(1 + \cos \theta)} = \frac{\sin \theta (1 + \cos \theta)}{1 - \cos^2 \theta} = \frac{\sin \theta (1 + \cos \theta)}{\sin^2 \theta} = \frac{1 + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta}​​
Now, the original expression becomes:

1+1+cosθsinθ(1cosθ)1+cosθsinθ1 + \frac{1 + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta} - (1 - \cos \theta) - \frac{1 + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta}​​

=1(1cosθ)=cosθ= 1 - (1 - \cos \theta) = \cos \theta
