Prove that tan A(1-cot A)+cot A(1-tan A)=(1+tan A+cot A).

Open in App
Solution

LHS=tanA(1cotA)+cotA(1tanA)=tanA(1cotA)+cot2A(cotA1) [tanA=1cotA]=tanA(1cotA)cot2A(1cotA)=tanAcot2A(1cotA)=(1cotA)cot2A(1cotA)=1cot3AcotA(1cotA)=(1cotA)(1+cotA+cot2A)cotA(1cotA) [a3b3=(ab)(a2+ab+b2)] =1cotA+cot2AcotA+cotAcotA=1+tanA+cotA=RHSHence proved
