Solution:
Step 1: Expand the first squared term (sinθ + cosecθ)² using (a+b)² = a² + b² + 2ab: (sinθ + cosecθ)² = sin²θ + cosec²θ + 2sinθcosecθ. Step 2: Use the reciprocal identity sinθcosecθ = 1: sin²θ + cosec²θ + 2(1) = sin²θ + cosec²θ + 2. Step 3: Expand the second squared term (cosθ + secθ)²: (cosθ + secθ)² = cos²θ + sec²θ + 2cosθsecθ.

8tan6x
Solution:
Step 1: Simplify the numerator N = 32cos⁶x - 48cos⁴x + 18cos²x - 1. Recall the triple angle identity for cosine: cos(3A) = 4cos³A - 3cosA. Let A = 2x. Then cos(6x) = cos(3 * 2x) = 4cos³(2x) - 3cos(2x). Now substitute cos(2x) = 2cos²x - 1 into the expression for cos(6x). cos(6x) = 4(2cos²x - 1)³ - 3(2cos²x - 1) Expand 4(2cos²x - 1)³: 4[ (2cos²x)³ - 3(2cos²x)²(1) + 3(2cos²x)(1)² - 1³ ] = 4[ 8cos⁶x - 12cos⁴x + 6cos²x - 1 ] = 32cos⁶x - 48cos⁴x + 24cos²x - 4. Substitute this back: cos(6x) = (32cos⁶x - 48cos⁴x + 24cos²x - 4) - 3(2cos²x - 1) = 32cos⁶x - 48cos⁴x + 24cos²x - 4 - 6cos²x + 3 = 32cos⁶x - 48cos⁴x + 18cos²x - 1. Thus, the numerator N = cos(6x). Step 2: Simplify the denominator D = 4sinxcosxsin(60°-x)cos(60°-x)sin(60°+x)cos(60°+x). Rearrange the terms: D = 4 * [sinx sin(60°-x) sin(60°+x)] * [cosx cos(60°-x) cos(60°+x)]. Recall the product identities: sin(A)sin(60°-A)sin(60°+A) = (1/4)sin(3A) cos(A)cos(60°-A)cos(60°+A) = (1/4)cos(3A) Step 3: Substitute these identities into the denominator expression. D = 4 * [(1/4)sin(3x)] * [(1/4)cos(3x)] D = (1/4)sin(3x)cos(3x). Step 4: Use the double angle identity sin(2A) = 2sinAcosA, so sinAcosA = (1/2)sin(2A). D = (1/4) * (1/2)sin(2 * 3x) D = (1/8)sin(6x). Step 5: Divide the simplified Numerator (N) by the simplified Denominator (D). Expression = N / D = cos(6x) / [(1/8)sin(6x)] = 8 * (cos(6x) / sin(6x)) Step 6: Use the identity cot(A) = cos(A)/sin(A). = 8cot(6x).

Solution:
Step 1: Apply complementary angle identities: sin(90° - θ) = cosθ, cosec(90° - θ) = secθ. sin 81° = sin(90° - 9°) = cos 9°. cosec 81° = cosec(90° - 9°) = sec 9°. sec 34° = sec(90° - 56°) = cosec 56°. cosec 65° = cosec(90° - 25°) = sec 25°. Step 2: Simplify the numerator [ (cos 9° + sin 81°)(sec 9° + cosec 81°) ]: = (cos 9° + cos 9°)(sec 9° + sec 9°) = (2cos 9°)(2sec 9°). Step 3: Apply the reciprocal identity cosθsecθ = 1: = 4(cos 9° sec 9°) = 4(1) = 4. Step 4: Simplify the denominator [ (sin 56° sec 34°) + (cos 25° cosec 65°) ]: = (sin 56° cosec 56°) + (cos 25° sec 25°). Step 5: Apply the reciprocal identities sinθcosecθ = 1 and cosθsecθ = 1: = (1) + (1) = 2. Step 6: Divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator: = 4 / 2 = 2. Step 7: The value of the expression is 2.

Multiply numerator and denominator inside the square root by (1+sinθ): √[((1+sinθ)(1+sinθ)) / ((1-sinθ)(1+sinθ))] = √[(1+sinθ)^2 / (1-sin^2θ)] Step 2: Apply the identity 1-sin^2θ = cos^2θ. = √[(1+sinθ)^2 / cos^2θ] = (1+sinθ) / cosθ Step 3: Rationalize the denominator of the second term, √((1-sinθ)/(1+sinθ)). Multiply numerator and denominator inside the square root by (1-sinθ): √[((1-sinθ)(1-sinθ)) / ((1+sinθ)(1-sinθ))] = √[(1-sinθ)^2 / (1-sin^2θ)] Step 4: Apply the identity 1-sin^2θ = cos^2θ. = √[(1-sinθ)^2 / cos^2θ] = (1-sinθ) / cosθ Step 5: Add the two simplified terms. = (1+sinθ)/cosθ + (1-sinθ)/cosθ Step 6: Combine the fractions since they have a common denominator. = (1+sinθ + 1-sinθ) / cosθ = 2 / cosθ Step 7: Use the reciprocal identity 1/cosθ = secθ. = 2secθ Step 8: The simplified expression is 2secθ.

Solution:

Substitute this into the expression: tanθ/(1 − 1/tanθ) + (1/tanθ)/(1 − tanθ) Step 2: Simplify the denominators. = tanθ / ((tanθ - 1)/tanθ) + (1/tanθ) / (1 - tanθ) Step 3: Invert and multiply. = tan^2θ / (tanθ - 1) + 1 / (tanθ(1 - tanθ)) Step 4: Change the sign in the second term's denominator to make it (tanθ - 1). = tan^2θ / (tanθ - 1) - 1 / (tanθ(tanθ - 1)) Step 5: Find a common denominator and combine the fractions. = (tan^3θ - 1) / (tanθ(tanθ - 1)) Step 6: Apply the algebraic factorization a^3 - b^3 = (a-b)(a^2 + ab + b^2). = (tanθ - 1)(tan^2θ + tanθ + 1) / (tanθ(tanθ - 1)) Step 7: Cancel out the common factor (tanθ - 1). = (tan^2θ + tanθ + 1) / tanθ Step 8: Separate the terms. = tan^2θ/tanθ + tanθ/tanθ + 1/tanθ = tanθ + 1 + cotθ Step 9: The simplified expression is tanθ + cotθ + 1.

Solution:
Step 1: Simplify the first factor (cos⁶θ + sin⁶θ - 1). Recall the identity a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²). cos⁶θ + sin⁶θ = (cos²θ)³ + (sin²θ)³ = (cos²θ + sin²θ)( (cos²θ)² - cos²θsin²θ + (sin²θ)² ) = 1 × (cos⁴θ - cos²θsin²θ + sin⁴θ) = (cos⁴θ + sin⁴θ) - cos²θsin²θ. Step 2: Use the identity (a² + b²)² = a⁴ + b⁴ + 2a²b² => a⁴ + b⁴ = (a² + b²)² - 2a²b². cos⁴θ + sin⁴θ = (cos²θ + sin²θ)² - 2cos²θsin²θ = 1² - 2cos²θsin²θ = 1 - 2cos²θsin²θ. Step 3: Substitute this back into the first factor: (1 - 2cos²θsin²θ) - cos²θsin²θ - 1 = 1 - 3cos²θsin²θ - 1 = -3cos²θsin²θ. Step 4: Simplify the second factor (tan²θ + cot²θ + 2). Recall the identity (a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab. This factor matches this form if a=tanθ and b=cotθ, because tanθ cotθ = 1. (tanθ + cotθ)² = tan²θ + cot²θ + 2tanθcotθ = tan²θ + cot²θ + 2(1) = tan²θ + cot²θ + 2. So, the second factor simplifies to (tanθ + cotθ)². Step 5: Multiply the simplified first and second factors: (-3cos²θsin²θ) × (tanθ + cotθ)². Step 6: Expand (tanθ + cotθ)² in terms of sinθ and cosθ: (sinθ/cosθ + cosθ/sinθ)² = ((sin²θ + cos²θ) / (sinθcosθ))² = (1 / (sinθcosθ))² = 1 / (sin²θcos²θ). Step 7: Substitute this back into the product: = (-3cos²θsin²θ) × (1 / (sin²θcos²θ)). Step 8: Cancel out cos²θsin²θ: = -3. Step 9: The value of the expression is -3.

Solution:

Numerator: 12sin(3 * 10°) + 5cos(5 * 10° - 5°) = 12sin(30°) + 5cos(50° - 5°) = 12sin(30°) + 5cos(45°) Denominator: 9sin(9 * 10° / 2) - 4cos(5 * 10° + 10°) = 9sin(90° / 2) - 4cos(50° + 10°) = 9sin(45°) - 4cos(60°) Step 2: Substitute the standard trigonometric values: sin(30°) = 1/2, cos(45°) = 1/√2, sin(45°) = 1/√2, cos(60°) = 1/2. Numerator: 12(1/2) + 5(1/√2) = 6 + 5/√2 Denominator: 9(1/√2) - 4(1/2) = 9/√2 - 2 Step 3: Form the simplified fraction. Expression = (6 + 5/√2) / (9/√2 - 2) Step 4: Multiply the numerator and denominator by √2 to eliminate square roots in the terms. = [(6 + 5/√2) * √2] / [(9/√2 - 2) * √2] = (6√2 + 5) / (9 - 2√2).

Rewrite the second term: (cos²A / (cos A - sin A)) - (sin²A / (cos A - sin A)) - sin A Step 6: Combine the first two terms as they share a common denominator: ((cos²A - sin²A) / (cos A - sin A)) - sin A Step 7: Apply the difference of squares identity (a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)) to the numerator: ((cos A - sin A)(cos A + sin A) / (cos A - sin A)) - sin A Step 8: Cancel out (cos A - sin A) (assuming cos A ≠ sin A): (cos A + sin A) - sin A Step 9: Simplify the expression: cos A.

Solution:
Step 1: Simplify the fraction term (sin^2θ - 2sin^4θ) / (2cos^4θ - cos^2θ). Factor out common terms from the numerator and denominator: Numerator: sin^2θ (1 - 2sin^2θ) Denominator: cos^2θ (2cos^2θ - 1) So the fraction is: [ sin^2θ (1 - 2sin^2θ) ] / [ cos^2θ (2cos^2θ - 1) ] Step 2: Apply the double angle identity for cos2θ. We know that cos2θ = 1 - 2sin^2θ and cos2θ = 2cos^2θ - 1. Substitute these into the fraction: = [ sin^2θ (cos2θ) ] / [ cos^2θ (cos2θ) ] Step 3: Cancel out the common term cos2θ (assuming cos2θ ≠ 0). = sin^2θ / cos^2θ Step 4: Apply the identity sin^2θ / cos^2θ = tan^2θ. = tan^2θ Step 5: Substitute this back into the original expression. Original expression = sec^2θ - tan^2θ Step 6: Apply the Pythagorean identity sec^2θ - tan^2θ = 1. = 1 Step 7: The value of the expression is 1.

Solution:
Step 1: Analyze the given examples to identify the pattern of the operation '*'. Example 1: 2 * 3 = √13 Notice that 2² + 3² = 4 + 9 = 13. So, √13 = √(2² + 3²). Example 2: 3 * 4 = 5 Notice that 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25. So, 5 = √25 = √(3² + 4²). Step 2: Formulate the general rule for the operation '*'. It appears that a * b = √(a² + b²). Step 3: Apply this rule to find the value of 5 * 12. 5 * 12 = √(5² + 12²) Step 4: Calculate the squares and their sum. 5² = 25 12² = 144 25 + 144 = 169 Step 5: Find the square root of the sum. √(169) = 13.

Solution:
Step 1: Group the terms strategically. A useful identity is cos²α + cos²β = 1 when α + β = 360°. The expression can be written as (cos²45° + cos²315°) + (cos²135° + cos²225°). Step 2: For the first group: α = 45°, β = 315°. Since 45° + 315° = 360°, then cos²45° + cos²315° = 1. (Alternatively: cos(315°) = cos(360° - 45°) = cos(45°). So cos²315° = cos²45°. Thus, cos²45° + cos²45° = 2(1/√2)² = 2(1/2) = 1). Step 3: For the second group: α = 135°, β = 225°. Since 135° + 225° = 360°, then cos²135° + cos²225° = 1. (Alternatively: cos(135°) = cos(180° - 45°) = -cos(45°). cos(225°) = cos(180° + 45°) = -cos(45°). Thus, cos²135° + cos²225° = cos²45° + cos²45° = 2(1/√2)² = 2(1/2) = 1). Step 4: Sum the results from Step 2 and Step 3: 1 + 1 = 2. Step 5: The value of the expression is 2.

Solution:
Step 1: Apply Pythagorean identities: 1 + cot²θ = cosec²θ and 1 + tan²θ = sec²θ. Step 2: Rewrite the first part of the expression: (cosec²θ)(sec²θ). Step 3: Rewrite the terms in the second part using reciprocal identities: (sinθ - cosecθ) = sinθ - 1/sinθ = (sin²θ - 1)/sinθ = -cos²θ/sinθ. (cosθ - secθ) = cosθ - 1/cosθ = (cos²θ - 1)/cosθ = -sin²θ/cosθ. Step 4: Multiply the rewritten second part: (-cos²θ/sinθ) × (-sin²θ/cosθ) = (cos²θ sin²θ) / (sinθ cosθ) = sinθ cosθ. Step 5: Multiply the results from Step 2 and Step 4: (cosec²θ)(sec²θ) × (sinθ cosθ). Step 6: Express cosec²θ as 1/sin²θ and sec²θ as 1/cos²θ. Step 7: (1/sin²θ)(1/cos²θ) × (sinθ cosθ) = (sinθ cosθ) / (sin²θ cos²θ) = 1 / (sinθ cosθ). Step 8: Recognize that 1/sinθ = cosecθ and 1/cosθ = secθ. Step 9: The final simplified expression is secθ cosecθ.

cot(x - y)
tan(2x + 2y)
Solution:
Step 1: Apply the sum-to-product and difference-to-product formulas for sine: sinA + sinB = 2sin((A+B)/2)cos((A-B)/2). sinA - sinB = 2cos((A+B)/2)sin((A-B)/2). Step 2: For A=4x and B=4y: sin4x + sin4y = 2sin((4x+4y)/2)cos((4x-4y)/2) = 2sin(2x+2y)cos(2x-2y). sin4x - sin4y = 2cos((4x+4y)/2)sin((4x-4y)/2) = 2cos(2x+2y)sin(2x-2y). Step 3: Substitute these into the main expression: [2sin(2x+2y)cos(2x-2y) / 2cos(2x+2y)sin(2x-2y)] × tan(2x - 2y). Step 4: Simplify the fraction: [sin(2x+2y)/cos(2x+2y)] × [cos(2x-2y)/sin(2x-2y)] × tan(2x - 2y). = tan(2x+2y) × cot(2x-2y) × tan(2x - 2y). Step 5: Recall that cotα × tanα = 1. So, cot(2x-2y) × tan(2x-2y) = 1. Step 6: The expression simplifies to tan(2x+2y).
