Prove that cot theta-tan theta=2cot 2 th...

Prove that `cot theta-tan theta=2cot 2 theta`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`cot theta-tan theta=(cos theta)/(sin theta)-(sin theta)/(cos theta)`
`=(cos ^(2)theta-sin^(2)theta)/(sin theta cos theta)`
`=(2cos 2theta)/(sin 2theta)`
`=2cot 2 theta`.
