Question
Prove the following trigonometric identities.
$\frac{1}{1+\sin\text{A}}+\frac{1}{1-\sin\text{A}}=2\sec^2\text{A}$
$\frac{1}{1+\sin\text{A}}+\frac{1}{1-\sin\text{A}}=2\sec^2\text{A}$
✓
Answer
$\text{L.H.S}=\frac{1-\sin\text{A}+1+\sin\text{A}}{(1+\sin\text{A})(1-\sin\text{A})}$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{2}{1-\sin^2\text{A}} \big[\because (1+\sin\text{A})(1-\sin\text{A})=1-\sin^2\text{A}\big]$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{2}{\cos^2\text{A}}\Rightarrow 2\sec^2\text{A} \big[\because 1-\sin\text{A}=\cos\text{A}\big]$
$\therefore\ \text{L.H.S}=\text{R.H.S}$
Hence proved

Shri Maniklal has purchased 300 shares of F.V. ₹ 100, for M.V. ₹ 120. Company has paid dividend at 7%. Complete the following activity to find the rate of return on his investment.
Activity :
F.V. = ₹ 100
Number of shares = 300
Market value = ₹ 120
(a) Sum invested = M.V. × No. of shares
$\therefore$ = ⬜ x ⬜
= ₹ 36,000
(b) Dividend per share $=$ F.V. × rate of dividend
= ⬜ x $\frac{⬜}{100} $
= ₹ 7
$\therefore \quad$ Total dividend received $=300 \times 7$
= ₹ ⬜
(c) Rate of return $=\frac{\text { Dividend income }}{\text { Sum invested }} \times 100$
$=\frac{2,100}{36,000} \times 100 $
= ⬜ %
