Prove that : \[\frac{\tan \theta}{1-\cot \theta}+\frac{\cot \theta}{1-\tan \theta}=1+\sec \theta \operatorname{cosec} \theta \]
Marking-scheme solution
\[\begin{aligned}
& \text { LHS }=\frac{\dfrac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}}{1-\dfrac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}}+\frac{\dfrac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}}{1-\dfrac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}} \\
& =\frac{\sin ^{2} \theta}{\cos \theta(\sin \theta-\cos \theta)}+\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta}{\sin \theta(\cos \theta-\sin \theta)} \\
& =\frac{\sin ^{3} \theta-\cos ^{3} \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta(\sin \theta-\cos \theta)} \\
& =\frac{\sin ^{2} \theta+\cos ^{2} \theta+\sin \theta \cos \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} \\
& =\frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}+1 \\
& =1+\operatorname{cosec} \theta \sec \theta=\mathrm{RHS}
\end{aligned}
