Problem

16 Prove that $\tan \theta+\frac{1}{\tan \theta} \equiv \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}$

Solution

Step 1 :\(\frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}\)

Step 2 :\(= \frac{\sin^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} + \frac{\cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}\)

Step 3 :\(= \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\)

Step 4 :\(= \tan \theta + \frac{1}{\tan \theta}\)

Step 5 :\(\boxed{\tan \theta + \frac{1}{\tan \theta} \equiv \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}}\)
