Question 31 (a) During a math class, Ms. Isha wrote the expression given below on the board and asked the students to simplify it. (cos𝜃)/(1−sin𝜃)+(1−sin𝜃)/(cos𝜃) Jyoti solved it in her note book as follows: Identify the step in which Jyoti has made error(s), if any. Rectify the same and find the correct answer. cos 8 1-sin 8 1-—sin 0 cos 8 _ cos*8+(1—sin@)? ~ (1=sin @)xcos®- _ _cos*8+cos*6 7 (1-sin 8)xcos@ 2cos70 a (1-sin 8)xcos®@ _ _2cos8 ~ (1-sin @) ..

(cos𝜃)/(1−sin𝜃)+(1−sin𝜃)/(cos𝜃) Jyoti solved it in her note book as follows: [, , (cos𝜃)/(1−sin𝜃)+(1−sin𝜃)/(cos𝜃); =, (cos^(2)𝜃+(1−sin𝜃)^(2))/((1−sin𝜃)×cos𝜃), (step1); =, (cos^(2)𝜃+cos^(2)𝜃)/((1−sin𝜃)×cos𝜃), (step2); =, (2cos^(2)𝜃)/((1−sin𝜃)×cos𝜃), (step2); =, (2cos𝜃)/((1−sin𝜃)), (step2)] Identify the step in which Jyoti has made error(s), if any. Rectify the same and find the correct answer. The error is in step 2 She put (1−𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃)^(2) = 𝑐𝑜𝑠^(2)𝜃 But, 1−𝑠𝑖𝑛^(2)𝜃=𝑐𝑜𝑠^(2)𝜃 Solving again (cos𝜃)/(1−sin𝜃)+(1 − sin𝜃)/(cos𝜃) = (cos^(2)𝜃 + (𝟏 − 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝜽)^(𝟐))/((1 − sin𝜃) × cos𝜃) = (cos^(2)𝜃 + 1^(2) + sin^(2) 𝜃 −2 sin 𝜃 )/((1 − sin𝜃) × cos𝜃) = (𝒄𝒐𝒔^(𝟐)𝜽 + 𝒔𝒊𝒏^(𝟐) 𝜽 + 1 − 2 sin 𝜃 )/((1 − sin𝜃) × cos𝜃) Putting cos^(2)𝜃 + sin^(2) 𝜃=1 = (𝟏 + 1 − 2 sin 𝜃 )/((1 − sin𝜃) × cos𝜃) = (2 − 2 𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝜃 )/((1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) × 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = (2(1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃))/((1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) × 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = (2)/(𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = 2 sec 𝜃 = (2 − 2 𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝜃 )/((1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) × 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = (2(1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃))/((1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) × 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = (2)/(𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) = 2 sec 𝜃
