SSC CHSL - 14 Aug 2023 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q71

Simplify the given equation. ( 1 + tan2A)(1 + cot2A) = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e.  1sin2A(1−sin2A)\frac{1}{sin^2A(1 - sin^2A)}.

( 1 + tan2A)(1 + cot2A)

= sec2A × cosec2A

= (1/cos2A) × (1/sin2A)

= 1/(sin2A cos2A)

=1sin2A(1−sin2A)=\frac{1}{sin^2A(1 - sin^2A)}
