Question : $\frac{1+\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$ is equal to which of the following (where $\left.\theta \neq \frac{\pi}{2}\right)?$

Option 1: $\frac{1+\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}$

Option 2: $\frac{\tan \theta+1}{\tan \theta-1}$

Option 3: $\frac{\tan \theta-1}{\tan \theta+1}$

Option 4: $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$


Solution : Given, $\frac{1+\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$
Multiplying numerator and denominator by $(1-\sin \theta)$
= $\frac{(1+\sin \theta)\times (1-\sin \theta)}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$ 
= $\frac{(1-\sin^2 \theta)}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$ 
= $\frac{\cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$
= $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$.

Question : If $xy+yz+zx=1$ , then the value of $\frac{1\:+\:y^2}{(x\:+\:y)(y\:+\:z)}$ is:

Option 1: 2

Option 2: 3

Option 3: 4

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : Given:
$xy+yz+zx=1$
Now, $\frac{1\:+\:y^2}{(x\:+\:y)(y\:+\:z)}$ 
= $\frac{1\:+\:y^2}{xy\:+\:yz\:+\:zx\:+\:y^2}$
= $\frac{1\:+\:y^2}{1\:+\:y^2}$
= $1$
Hence, the correct answer is 1.
