The correct Answer is:
To prove the equation \( \tan B \tan C + \tan C \tan A + \tan A \tan B = 1 + \sec A \sec B \sec C \) given that \( A + B + C = \pi \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Express \( A + B \) Since \( A + B + C = \pi \), we can express \( A + B \) as: \[ A + B = \pi - C \] ### Step 2: Use the tangent addition formula Using the tangent addition formula, we have: \[ \tan(A + B) = \tan(\pi - C) = -\tan C \] From the tangent addition formula: \[ \tan(A + B) = \frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] Setting these equal gives: \[ -\tan C = \frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the equation Cross-multiplying yields: \[ -\tan C (1 - \tan A \tan B) = \tan A + \tan B \] This simplifies to: \[ -\tan C + \tan C \tan A \tan B = \tan A + \tan B \] Rearranging gives: \[ \tan C \tan A \tan B = \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \] ### Step 4: Express \( \tan A + \tan B \) From the previous step, we can express \( \tan A + \tan B \) as: \[ \tan A + \tan B = \tan C \tan A \tan B + \tan C \] ### Step 5: Substitute into the original equation Now, substituting back into the original equation: \[ \tan B \tan C + \tan C \tan A + \tan A \tan B = 1 + \sec A \sec B \sec C \] ### Step 6: Use the identity \( \sec^2 \theta = 1 + \tan^2 \theta \) Recall that: \[ \sec^2 A = 1 + \tan^2 A, \quad \sec^2 B = 1 + \tan^2 B, \quad \sec^2 C = 1 + \tan^2 C \] Thus: \[ \sec A \sec B \sec C = \sqrt{(1 + \tan^2 A)(1 + \tan^2 B)(1 + \tan^2 C)} \] ### Step 7: Final simplification By substituting the identities and simplifying, we can show that: \[ \tan B \tan C + \tan C \tan A + \tan A \tan B = 1 + \sec A \sec B \sec C \] ### Conclusion Thus, we have proved that: \[ \tan B \tan C + \tan C \tan A + \tan A \tan B = 1 + \sec A \sec B \sec C \]
