The value of, $${\text{sec}}\theta \left( {\frac{{1 + \sin \theta }}{{{\text{cos}}\theta }} + \frac{{{\text{cos}}\theta }}{{1 + \sin \theta }}} \right)$$      - $$2{\text{ta}}{{\text{n}}^2}\theta $$   is?

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{sec}}\theta \left( {\frac{{1 + \sin \theta }}{{{\text{cos}}\theta }} + \frac{{{\text{cos}}\theta }}{{1 + \sin \theta }}} \right) - 2{\text{ta}}{{\text{n}}^2}\theta \cr & {\bf{Shortcut method:}} \cr & {\text{Take, }}\theta = {0^ \circ } \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{sec }}{0^ \circ }\left( {\frac{{1 + \sin {0^ \circ }}}{{{\text{cos }}{0^ \circ }}} + \frac{{{\text{cos }}{0^ \circ }}}{{1 + \sin {0^ \circ }}}} \right) - 2{\text{ta}}{{\text{n}}^2}{0^ \circ } \cr & \Rightarrow 1\left( {\frac{{1 + 0}}{1} + \frac{1}{{1 + 0}}} \right) - 0 \cr & \Rightarrow 2 \cr} $$
