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: $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$
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
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.
