Question

The value of 1 / (1 + tan²θ) is equivalent to:

A.

1

B.

sin θ

C.

cos θ

D.

cos² θ

Correct option is D

Given:
Expression to evaluate:
1 / (1 + tan²θ)

Formula Used:

1 + tan²θ = sec²θ
1 / sec²θ = cos²θ

Solution:
Start with the expression:
1 / (1 + tan²θ)

Using the identity:
1 + tan²θ = sec²θ
So,
11+tan2θ=1sec2θ=cos2θ\frac{1}{1 + \tan^2 \theta} = \frac{1}{\sec^2 \theta} = \cos^2 \theta​​

Final Answer: (D) cos²θ
