The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem \( 6\tan^2\theta - 6\sec^2\theta \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Recall the Pythagorean Identity We know from trigonometric identities that: \[ \sec^2\theta = 1 + \tan^2\theta \] ### Step 2: Substitute the Identity We can substitute \( \sec^2\theta \) in the expression: \[ 6\tan^2\theta - 6\sec^2\theta = 6\tan^2\theta - 6(1 + \tan^2\theta) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the Expression Now, distribute the \( -6 \): \[ 6\tan^2\theta - 6 - 6\tan^2\theta \] ### Step 4: Combine Like Terms Notice that \( 6\tan^2\theta - 6\tan^2\theta \) cancels out: \[ -6 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( 6\tan^2\theta - 6\sec^2\theta \) is: \[ \boxed{-6} \]
