Question : Simplify the following expression: $\frac{1-\sin A}{\cos A}+\frac{\cos A}{1-\sin A}$

Option 1: $2 \cos A$

Option 2: $2 \tan A$

Option 3: $2 \sec A$

Option 4: $2 \sin A$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $2 \sec A$


Solution : $\frac{1-\sin A}{\cos A}+\frac{\cos A}{1-\sin A}$
$=\frac{(1-\sin A)^2+\cos^2A}{\cos A(1-\sin A)}$
$=\frac{1+\sin^2 A-2\sin A+\cos^2A}{\cos A(1-\sin A)}$
$=\frac{1+1 -2\sin A}{\cos A(1-\sin A)}$
$=\frac{2 -2\sin A}{\cos A(1-\sin A)}$
$=\frac{2(1 -\sin A)}{\cos A(1-\sin A)}$
$=\frac{2}{\cos A}$
$=2\sec A$
Hence, the correct answer is $2\sec A$.

Option 4: Gain 1%

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Loss 1%


Solution : Marked price, $MP$ = INR 550
Cost price, $CP=\frac{MP\times 100}{(100+10)}$

= INR 500
Selling price after 10% discount on marked price, $SP = \frac{550\times (100-10)}{100}$
 = $\frac{550\times 90}{100}$
