If

Question:

If $\frac{\pi}{2}

(a) sec x − tan x

(b) sec x + tan x

(c) tan x − sec x

(d) none of these

Solution:

(c) tan x − sec x

$\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin x}{1+\sin x}}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin x)^{2}}{1-\sin ^{2} x}}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin x)^{2}}{\cos ^{2} x}}$

$=\frac{(1-\sin x)}{-\cos x} \quad\left[\operatorname{as}, \frac{\pi}{2}

$=-(\sec x-\tan x)$

 

$=-\sec x+\tan x$
