Question

Prove the following identities:

`(tan"A"+tan"B")/(cot"A"+cot"B")=tan"A"tan"B"`

Sum

Solution

`(tan"A"+tan"B")/(cot"A"+cot"B")=tan"A"tan"B"`

= L.H.S.

=`(tan"A"+tan"B")/(cot"A"+cot"B")`


= `(tan"A"+tan"B")/(1/tanA+1/tanB`


= `(tan"A"+tan"B")/((tan"A"+tan"B")/(tan"A".tan"B"))`

= `((tan"A"+tan"B")(tan"A".tan"B"))/(tan"A"+tan"B")`

= tan A tan B

= R.H.S.

Hence, proved.
