Solution

(1)
LHS = tan20°.tan35°.tan45°.tan55°.tan70°
= tan(90 - 70).tan(90-55).tan45°.tan55°.tan70°
we know,
tan(90-∅) = cot∅ use , this concept here,

= cot70°.cot55°.tan45°.tan55°.tan70°
= { tan70°.cot70°} {tan55°.cot55°}.tan45°
we know,
tan∅.cot∅ = 1

= 1 × 1 × 1 = 1 = RHS
Hence LHS = RHS

(2) sec 42 = cosec (90-42) = cosec 48
cosec 42 = sec (90-42) = sec 48

LHS = sin 48 sec 42 + cos 48 cosec 42
= sin 48 cosec 48 + cos 48 sec 48
= 1 + 1 = 2 ( sin 48 cosec 48 =1 and cos 48 sec 48 =1)
RHS = 2
LHS =RHS
Hence proved
