Q2 of 104 Page 196

Prove the following:

sin48 sec42 + cos48 cosec42 = 2

cos(90–θ ) = sinθ


tan(90–θ ) = cotθ


sin(90–θ ) = cosθ


cot(90–θ ) = tanθ


cosec(90–θ ) = secθ


sec(90–θ) = cosecθ


L.H.S


sin48 sec42 + cos48 cosec42


= sin48sec(90–48) + cos48cosec(90–48)


= sin48cosec48 + cos48sec48


= 1 + 1


= 2 = R.H.S
