The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we start with the given equation: 1. **Given Equation**: \[ \tan \theta + \cot \theta = 2 \] 2. **Using the Identity**: We know that \(\tan \theta\) can be expressed as \(\frac{1}{\cot \theta}\). Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \tan \theta + \frac{1}{\tan \theta} = 2 \] 3. **Letting \(x = \tan \theta\)**: We can substitute \(x\) for \(\tan \theta\): \[ x + \frac{1}{x} = 2 \] 4. **Multiplying through by \(x\)**: To eliminate the fraction, multiply the entire equation by \(x\): \[ x^2 + 1 = 2x \] 5. **Rearranging the Equation**: Rearranging gives us a standard quadratic equation: \[ x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 \] 6. **Factoring the Quadratic**: This can be factored as: \[ (x - 1)^2 = 0 \] 7. **Finding the Value of \(x\)**: Solving for \(x\) gives: \[ x - 1 = 0 \implies x = 1 \] Thus, \(\tan \theta = 1\) and consequently \(\cot \theta = 1\). 8. **Calculating \(\tan^n \theta + \cot^n \theta\)**: Now we need to find: \[ \tan^n \theta + \cot^n \theta = 1^n + 1^n \] 9. **Simplifying the Expression**: Since \(1^n = 1\) for any integer \(n\): \[ \tan^n \theta + \cot^n \theta = 1 + 1 = 2 \] 10. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the value of \(\tan^n \theta + \cot^n \theta\) is: \[ \boxed{2} \]
