Question 140

If $$\frac{2tan^230^{\circ}}{1-tan^230^{\circ}}+sec^{2}45^{\circ}-sec^{2}0^{\circ}$$ = x sec 60°, then the value of x is

Solution

we know ,

tan 30 = $$\frac{1}{\surd3}$$

sec 45 = $$\surd2$$

sec 0 = 1

sec 60 = 2

using the above values in

L.H.S :: $$\frac{2tan^230^{\circ}}{1-tan^230^{\circ}}+sec^{2}45^{\circ}-sec^{2}0^{\circ}$$ = $$\frac{2 (\frac{1}{\surd3})^2}{1 - (\frac{1}{\surd3})^2}$$ + $$(\surd2)^2$$ - $$1^2$$

= 1 + 2 - 1 = 2

it is given that ,

2 = x sec 60 = 2x

x = 1
