- $2\sec\text{x}$
- $-2\sec\text{x}$
- $\sec\text{x}$
- $-\sec\text{x}$
Solution:
$-2\sec\text{x}$
$\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{1+\sin\text{x}}}+\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin\text{x}}{1-\sin\text{x}}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin\text{x})(1-\sin\text{x})}{(1+\sin\text{x})(1-\sin\text{x})}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\text{x})(1+\sin\text{x})}{(1-\sin\text{x})(1+\sin\text{x})}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin\text{x})^2}{1-\sin^2\text{x}}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\text{x})^2}{1-\sin^2\text{x}}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin\text{x})^2}{\cos^2\text{x}}}+\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin\text{x})^2}{\cos^2\text{x}}}$
$=\frac{(1-\sin\text{x})}{-\cos\text{x}}+\frac{(1+\sin\text{x})}{-\cos\text{x}}$ $[\frac{\pi}{2}<\text{x}<\pi,\text{so}\cos\text{x}\text{ will }\text{be }\text{negative}.]$
$-(\sec\text{x}-\tan\text{x})-(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x})$
$=-2\sec\text{x}$

The lengths of three unequal edges of a rectangular solid block are in G.P. If the volume of the block is 216cm3 and the total surface area is 252cm2, then the length of the longest edge is:
The distance between the lines 3x + 4y = 9 and 6x + 8y = 15 is:
