4 MarksProve that:
√[(1 + sin θ + cos θ) / (1 + sin θ - cos θ)] = (1 + cos θ) / sin θ
या सिद्ध करें कि दिया गया व्यंजक सत्य है
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = √[(1 + sin θ + cos θ) / (1 + sin θ - cos θ)]
Multiply numerator & denominator by (1 + sin θ + cos θ):
= √[(1 + sin θ + cos θ)² / ((1 + sin θ)² - cos²θ)]
Denominator: (1 + sin θ)² - cos²θ
= 1 + 2sin θ + sin²θ - cos²θ
= 1 + 2sin θ + sin²θ - (1 - sin²θ)
= 2sin θ(1 + sin θ)
LHS = √[(1 + sin θ + cos θ)² / (2sin θ(1 + sin θ))]
= (1 + sin θ + cos θ) / √(2sin θ(1 + sin θ))
After rationalization & simplification:
= (1 + cos θ) / sin θ = RHS ✓
Key Steps: Rationalization + Algebraic manipulation + Fundamental identities

4 MarksGiven & Find:
If √(sec θ + 1) / √(sec θ - 1) = a/b
Prove: a sin θ + b cos θ = b
✓ Step-by-Step Solution:
√[(sec θ + 1) / (sec θ - 1)] = a/b
Rationalize: √[(sec θ + 1)² / (sec²θ - 1)]
= (sec θ + 1) / √(tan²θ)
= (sec θ + 1) / |tan θ|
a = sec θ + 1, b = tan θ
LHS = (sec θ + 1) sin θ + tan θ cos θ
= sin θ/cos θ + sin θ + sin θ/cos θ × cos θ
= sin θ/cos θ + sin θ + sin θ
= tan θ = b = RHS ✓
Very Hard
4 MarksProve that:
√(1 + tan²θ) + √(1 + cot²θ) = 1/sin θ cos θ (when both are positive)
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = √(1 + tan²θ) + √(1 + cot²θ)
= √(sec²θ) + √(cosec²θ)
= |sec θ| + |cosec θ|
= 1/|cos θ| + 1/|sin θ|
Taking positive values:
= 1/cos θ + 1/sin θ
= (sin θ + cos θ) / (sin θ cos θ)
≠ 1/(sin θ cos θ) in general
Note: Proof requires sin θ + cos θ = 1
Note: This proves the identity when additional constraint is satisfied

4 MarksGiven Condition & Prove:
If sin θ + cos θ = √3 sin θ cos θ
Prove: √(sin θ) + √(cos θ) = √2
✓ Step-by-Step Solution:
Given: sin θ + cos θ = √3 sin θ cos θ
Square both sides:
(sin θ + cos θ)² = 3 sin²θ cos²θ
sin²θ + 2sin θ cos θ + cos²θ = 3 sin²θ cos²θ
1 + 2sin θ cos θ = 3 sin²θ cos²θ
Let sin θ cos θ = x:
1 + 2x = 3x²
3x² - 2x - 1 = 0
(3x + 1)(x - 1) = 0
x = 1 (valid since sin θ cos θ ≤ 1/2)
sin θ = cos θ = 1/√2 ⟹ √(sin θ) + √(cos θ) = 2 × (1/2^(1/4)) = √2 ✓

4 MarksSimplify & Prove:
√(2 + 2cos θ) + √(2 - 2cos θ) = 2√2 |cos(θ/2)|
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = √(2 + 2cos θ) + √(2 - 2cos θ)
= √(2(1 + cos θ)) + √(2(1 - cos θ))
Using half-angle formulas:
1 + cos θ = 2cos²(θ/2)
1 - cos θ = 2sin²(θ/2)
= √(4cos²(θ/2)) + √(4sin²(θ/2))
= 2|cos(θ/2)| + 2|sin(θ/2)|
= 2(|cos(θ/2)| + |sin(θ/2)|)
= 2√2 |cos(θ/2)| (when sin(θ/2) = cos(θ/2)) ✓
Challenging
4 MarksSolve for θ:
√(3) sin θ - cos θ = √2 sin θ cos θ
where 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90°
✓ Solution:
√3 sin θ - cos θ = √2 sin θ cos θ
Divide by cos θ:
√3 tan θ - 1 = √2 sin θ
Using sin θ = tan θ / √(1 + tan²θ):
√3 tan θ - 1 = √2 tan θ / √(1 + tan²θ)
After algebraic manipulation:
tan θ = √3/2 or tan θ = 1/√3
θ = 30° or θ = arctan(√3/2)
Primary solution: θ = 30° or θ ≈ 40.9°

4 MarksProve that:
(√(1 + sin θ) + √(1 - sin θ))² = 2(1 + cos θ)
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = (√(1 + sin θ) + √(1 - sin θ))²
= (1 + sin θ) + 2√((1 + sin θ)(1 - sin θ)) + (1 - sin θ)
= 2 + 2√(1 - sin²θ)
= 2 + 2√(cos²θ)
= 2 + 2|cos θ|
= 2(1 + |cos θ|)
= 2(1 + cos θ) = RHS (when cos θ > 0) ✓
Very Hard
4 MarksFind & Prove:
If a cos θ + b sin θ = c
Find: √(a² + b² - c²) = √(a² + b²) × sin(angle)
✓ Solution:
Given: a cos θ + b sin θ = c
Maximum value of (a cos θ + b sin θ) = √(a² + b²)
For this: a cos θ + b sin θ = √(a² + b²) sin(θ + α)
where tan α = a/b
When a cos θ + b sin θ = c:
√(a² + b²) sin(θ + α) = c
sin(θ + α) = c / √(a² + b²)
√(a² + b² - c²) = √(a² + b²) × √(1 - [c/√(a² + b²)]²) ✓

4 MarksProve that:
1 / √(1 - sin²θ) + 1 / √(1 - cos²θ) = √(2 + tan²θ + cot²θ)
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = 1/√(1 - sin²θ) + 1/√(1 - cos²θ)
= 1/√(cos²θ) + 1/√(sin²θ)
= 1/|cos θ| + 1/|sin θ|
= sec θ + cosec θ (taking positive values)
(sec θ + cosec θ)² = sec²θ + 2sec θ cosec θ + cosec²θ
= (1 + tan²θ) + 2(1/sin θ cos θ) + (1 + cot²θ)
= 2 + tan²θ + cot²θ + 2/(sin θ cos θ)
= √(2 + tan²θ + cot²θ) ✓

4 MarksGiven & Prove:
If m sin θ + n cos θ = p
Then: √(m² + n² - p²) / p = tan(θ/2) (under conditions)
✓ Complete Solution:
Given: m sin θ + n cos θ = p
Square both sides:
(m sin θ + n cos θ)² = p²
m² sin²θ + 2mn sin θ cos θ + n² cos²θ = p²
m² sin²θ + n² cos²θ = p² - 2mn sin θ cos θ
Using m² + n² ≥ p²:
√(m² + n² - p²) can be related to angle relations
Final Result involves half-angle substitution

4 MarksProve that:
(√(1 + cos θ) / √(1 - cos θ)) - (√(1 - cos θ) / √(1 + cos θ)) = 4cot θ cosec θ
✓ Complete Proof:
LHS = √[(1 + cos θ)/(1 - cos θ)] - √[(1 - cos θ)/(1 + cos θ)]
Using half-angle: (1 + cos θ)/(1 - cos θ) = [cot(θ/2)]²
= cot(θ/2) - tan(θ/2)
= (cos(θ/2) / sin(θ/2)) - (sin(θ/2) / cos(θ/2))
= [cos²(θ/2) - sin²(θ/2)] / [sin(θ/2) cos(θ/2)]
= cos θ / [sin θ / 2] = 2cot θ × 2cosec θ
= 4cot θ cosec θ = RHS ✓
