The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the expressions given for \( x \) and \( y \), and then check which option is correct by substituting the values. ### Step 1: Define the expressions We have: \[ x = \sec \theta - \tan \theta \] \[ y = \csc \theta + \cot \theta \] ### Step 2: Substitute \( \theta = 45^\circ \) We will substitute \( \theta = 45^\circ \) into the expressions for \( x \) and \( y \). Calculating \( x \): \[ \sec 45^\circ = \frac{1}{\cos 45^\circ} = \frac{1}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}} = \sqrt{2} \] \[ \tan 45^\circ = \frac{\sin 45^\circ}{\cos 45^\circ} = 1 \] Thus, \[ x = \sec 45^\circ - \tan 45^\circ = \sqrt{2} - 1 \] Calculating \( y \): \[ \csc 45^\circ = \frac{1}{\sin 45^\circ} = \sqrt{2} \] \[ \cot 45^\circ = \frac{\cos 45^\circ}{\sin 45^\circ} = 1 \] Thus, \[ y = \csc 45^\circ + \cot 45^\circ = \sqrt{2} + 1 \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( xy + 1 \) Now we need to calculate \( xy + 1 \): \[ xy = (\sqrt{2} - 1)(\sqrt{2} + 1) \] Using the difference of squares: \[ xy = (\sqrt{2})^2 - (1)^2 = 2 - 1 = 1 \] Thus, \[ xy + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 \] ### Step 4: Check the options Now we need to check each option to see which one equals \( 2 \). **Option 1:** \( xy + 1 = x - y \) \[ x - y = (\sqrt{2} - 1) - (\sqrt{2} + 1) = \sqrt{2} - 1 - \sqrt{2} - 1 = -2 \quad \text{(not equal to 2)} \] **Option 2:** \( xy + 1 = x - 2y \) \[ x - 2y = (\sqrt{2} - 1) - 2(\sqrt{2} + 1) = \sqrt{2} - 1 - 2\sqrt{2} - 2 = -\sqrt{2} - 3 \quad \text{(not equal to 2)} \] **Option 3:** \( xy + 1 = x + y \) \[ x + y = (\sqrt{2} - 1) + (\sqrt{2} + 1) = 2\sqrt{2} \quad \text{(not equal to 2)} \] **Option 4:** \( xy + 1 = y - x \) \[ y - x = (\sqrt{2} + 1) - (\sqrt{2} - 1) = \sqrt{2} + 1 - \sqrt{2} + 1 = 2 \quad \text{(equal to 2)} \] ### Conclusion The correct option is: \[ \text{Option 4: } xy + 1 = y - x \]
