Prove the following trigonometric identities:

a.

cosec2θ−sec⁡2θ≡cot⁡2θ−tan⁡2θ\text{cosec}^2\theta - \sec^2\theta \equiv \cot^2\theta - \tan^2\thetacosec2θ−sec2θ≡cot2θ−tan2θ

[2]
b.

(cosecθ−sin⁡θ)2≡cot⁡2θ−cos⁡2θ(\text{cosec}\theta - \sin\theta)^2 \equiv \cot^2\theta - \cos^2\theta(cosecθ−sinθ)2≡cot2θ−cos2θ
