Question 21

Establish the following trigonometric results:

a.

cosec2ϕ−tan⁡2ϕ≡cot⁡2ϕ−sec⁡2ϕ+2\text{cosec}^2 \phi - \tan^2 \phi \equiv \cot^2 \phi - \sec^2 \phi + 2cosec2ϕ−tan2ϕ≡cot2ϕ−sec2ϕ+2

b.

(sec⁡x+cos⁡x)2≡tan⁡2x+cos⁡2x+3(\sec x + \cos x)^2 \equiv \tan^2 x + \cos^2 x + 3(secx+cosx)2≡tan2x+cos2x+3
