The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( n(m^2 - 1) \) given that \( \cos \theta + \sin \theta = m \) and \( \sec \theta + \csc \theta = n \). ### Step 1: Express \( m^2 \) We start with the equation: \[ m = \cos \theta + \sin \theta \] Now, we can square both sides: \[ m^2 = (\cos \theta + \sin \theta)^2 \] Using the identity \( (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 \), we get: \[ m^2 = \cos^2 \theta + 2\cos \theta \sin \theta + \sin^2 \theta \] Since \( \cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta = 1 \), we can simplify this to: \[ m^2 = 1 + 2\cos \theta \sin \theta \] ### Step 2: Find \( m^2 - 1 \) Now, we subtract 1 from both sides: \[ m^2 - 1 = 2\cos \theta \sin \theta \] ### Step 3: Express \( n \) Next, we need to find \( n \): \[ n = \sec \theta + \csc \theta \] Using the definitions of secant and cosecant: \[ n = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} + \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \] Finding a common denominator: \[ n = \frac{\sin \theta + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} \] Substituting \( m \) for \( \sin \theta + \cos \theta \): \[ n = \frac{m}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( \sin \theta \cos \theta \) From the earlier step, we know: \[ \sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{m^2 - 1}{2} \] Thus, we can substitute this into the expression for \( n \): \[ n = \frac{m}{\frac{m^2 - 1}{2}} = \frac{2m}{m^2 - 1} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( n(m^2 - 1) \) Now we can find \( n(m^2 - 1) \): \[ n(m^2 - 1) = \left(\frac{2m}{m^2 - 1}\right)(m^2 - 1) \] The \( m^2 - 1 \) terms cancel out: \[ n(m^2 - 1) = 2m \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( n(m^2 - 1) \) is: \[ \boxed{2m} \]
