Select the INCORRECT formula from the following options

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. sec2 θ + cos 2 θ = 1 

As we know that

Trigonometry identity

sin2 θ + cos 2 θ= 1

cosec2 θ - cot2 θ= 1

sec 2 θ- tan 2 θ= 1

Hence, sec2 θ + cos 2 θ = 1 is the wrong formula.
