Given that $cos⁡ϕ≠±1\cos \phi \neq \pm 1$ , prove the identity

\frac{1}{1 - \cos \phi} + \frac{1}{1 + \cos \phi} \equiv 2 \csc^2 \phi

In a study of robotic arm resonance, the stability factor $k$ is defined by the equation

\frac{1}{1 - \cos \phi} + \frac{1}{1 + \cos \phi} = k

Determine the set of values of $k$ for which this equation has real solutions for $ϕ\phi$ . Fully justify your answer.
