Question

How should I solve the proving questions in trigonometry? Pls help.

Like for example:-

sinA(1+tanA) + cosA( 1+cotA) = secA + cosecA.

I am facing problems in these kinds of questions. How should I proceed when I get these questions. (I can solve this particular question but don’t know how to tackle other questions of the same kind)

Answer 1

1.analyse the question properly
2.Be familiar with all trigonometric relations
3.try to reduce the question into the forms of sin,cos by dividing the all equation by sin or cos
4.then use trigonometric relations to reduce the equation into simple forms containing only sin,cos terms
5.by doing this steps you can simply prove this type of equation
