Question : If $\operatorname{cosec} A+\cot A=a \sqrt{b}$, then find the value of $\frac{\left(a^2 b-1\right)}{\left(a^2 b+1\right)}$.
Option 1: $\cos A$
Option 2: $\tan A$
Option 3: $\frac{1}{\sin A}$
Option 4: $\frac{1}{\cot A}$
Correct Answer: $\cos A$
Solution : Consider, $\operatorname{cosec} A+\cot A=a \sqrt{b}$ Squaring both sides, we get, ⇒ $(\operatorname{cosec} A+\cot A)^2=a^2b$ ⇒ $\operatorname{cosec^2 }A+\cot^2A+2\operatorname{cosec} A\cot A = a^2b$ ⇒ $a^2b=\frac{1}{\sin^2 A}+\frac{\cos^2A}{\sin^2 A}+2\frac{1}{\sin A}\frac{\cos A}{\sin A}$ ⇒ $a^2b=\frac{1+\cos^2A+2\cos A}{\sin^2 A}$ ⇒ $a^2b=\frac{(1+\cos A)^2}{\sin^2A}$ ⇒ $a^2b=\frac{(1+\cos A)^2}{1-\cos^2A}$ [As $\cos^2A+\sin^2A=1$] ⇒ $a^2b=\frac{(1+\cos A)^2}{(1-\cos A)(1+\cos
