The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the expressions for \( p \) and \( q \) given in the question. ### Step 1: Write down the expressions for \( p \) and \( q \) Given: \[ p = \csc \theta - \cot \theta \] \[ q = \left( \csc \theta + \cot \theta \right)^{-1} \] ### Step 2: Rewrite \( q \) We can rewrite \( q \) as: \[ q = \frac{1}{\csc \theta + \cot \theta} \] ### Step 3: Find the relationship between \( p \) and \( q \) We can use the identity for the difference of squares: \[ \csc^2 \theta - \cot^2 \theta = 1 \] This can be factored as: \[ (\csc \theta + \cot \theta)(\csc \theta - \cot \theta) = 1 \] Substituting the expressions for \( p \) and \( q \): \[ (\csc \theta + \cot \theta)(p) = 1 \] This implies: \[ p \cdot (\csc \theta + \cot \theta) = 1 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( q \) into the equation From our expression for \( q \), we can substitute: \[ p \cdot \frac{1}{q} = 1 \] Thus, we can rearrange this to find: \[ p = q \] ### Conclusion The relationship we derived shows that: \[ p = q \] ### Final Answer The correct option is: **B. \( p = q \)** ---

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the expressions for \( p \) and \( q \) given in the question. ### Step 1: Write down the expressions for \( p \) and \( q \) Given: \[ p = \csc \theta - \cot \theta \] \[ ...
