If sec space straight theta space minus space tan space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction comma the value of sec space straight theta. space space tan space straight theta is

  • 2 over 3
  • fraction numerator 2 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
  • fraction numerator 4 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
  • fraction numerator 4 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction


A.

2 over 3

If sec space straight theta space minus space tan space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction   ...(i)
 Then, sec space straight theta space plus space tan space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator begin display style fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction end style end fraction space space space equals space square root of 3 space     ...(ii)
    open square brackets because space space sec space straight theta space minus space tan space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator sec space straight theta space plus space tan space straight theta end fraction close square brackets
Adding (i) and (ii),
  2 space sec space straight theta space space equals space square root of 3 space space plus space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 3 plus 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 4 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space space rightwards double arrow space space secθ space equals space fraction numerator 2 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
Again, by equation (ii) - (i)
2 space tan space straight theta space equals space square root of 3 space minus space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 3 minus 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 2 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
rightwards double arrow space space space tan space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
therefore space space space sec space straight theta space. space tan space straight theta
equals space fraction numerator 2 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space cross times space fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space equals space 2 over 3
