Prove that: $\displaystyle \sqrt{\frac{\sec \mathrm{A}-1}{\sec \mathrm{~A}+1}}+\sqrt{\frac{\sec \mathrm{A}+1}{\sec \mathrm{~A}-1}}=2 \operatorname{cosec} \mathrm{~A}$
Prove that: $\displaystyle \left(\frac{1}{\cos \mathrm{~A}}-\cos \mathrm{A}\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sin \mathrm{~A}}-\sin \mathrm{A}\right)=\frac{1}{\tan \mathrm{~A}+\cot \mathrm{A}}$
Marking-scheme solution
LHS \(\displaystyle =\frac{\sec \mathrm{A}-1+\sec \mathrm{A}+1}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} \mathrm{~A}-1}}\)
\(\displaystyle =\frac{2 \sec \mathrm{~A}}{\tan \mathrm{~A}}\)
\(\displaystyle =2 \operatorname{cosec} \mathrm{~A}=\mathrm{RHS}\)
LHS \(\displaystyle =\left(\frac{1-\cos ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{\cos \mathrm{~A}}\right)\left(\frac{1-\sin ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{\sin \mathrm{~A}}\right)\)
\(\displaystyle =\frac{\sin ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{\cos \mathrm{~A}} \cdot \frac{\cos ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{\sin \mathrm{~A}}\)
\(\displaystyle =\sin \mathrm{A} . \cos \mathrm{A}\)
RHS \(\displaystyle =\frac{\text { sin } \mathrm{A} \cdot \cos \mathrm{A}}{\sin ^{2} \mathrm{~A}+\cos ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}\)
\(\displaystyle =\sin \mathrm{A} \cdot \cos \mathrm{A}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore \mathrm{LHS}=\mathrm{RHS}\)
