Question

Prove that  `cot^2  pi/6 + cosec  (5pi)/6 + 3 tan^2  pi/6 = 6`

Sum

Solution

Left side = `cot^2  pi/6 + cosec (5pi)/6 + 3 tan^2  pi/6`

= `(sqrt3)^2 + cosec  (pi-pi/6)  + 3 (1/sqrt3)^2`

`(∴ cot pi/6 = sqrt3, tan  pi/6 = 1/sqrt3)`

= 3 + cosec `pi/6+ 3 xx 1/3` 

[∵cosec `(pi-θ)= cosec θ`]

= 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 = Right Side.
