Answer»

Math]secx + TANX[/math]

[math]secx = \dfrac{1}{cosx}[/math]

And we know that

[math]cosx = \dfrac{1-TAN^2\frac{x}{2}}{1+tan^2\frac{x}{2}}[/math]

So,

[math]secx = \dfrac{1+tan^2\frac{x}{2}}{1-tan^2\frac{x}{2}}[/math]

ALSO

[math]tanx = \dfrac{2tan\frac{x}{2}}{1-tan^2\frac{x}{2}}[/math]

On adding the 2 equations we get

[math]secx + tanx = \dfrac{1+2tan\frac{x}{2}+tan^2\frac{x}{2}}{1-tan^2\frac{x}{2}}[/math]

LHS = [math]\dfrac{(1+tan\frac{x}{2})^2}{(1-tan\frac{x}{2})(1+tan{x}{2})}[/math]

Cancelling one of the terms of 1+tan(x/2) we get

LHS = [math]\dfrac{1+tan\frac{x}{2}}{1-tan\frac{x}{2}}[/math]

LHS = [math]tan (\frac{\pi}{4} + \frac{x}{2})[/math]

So we see that we get a TERM of [math]\frac{\pi}{4}[/math] and not [math]\frac{\pi}{8}[/math]
