Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Using the identities

tan x =
(sinx)/(cosx) , cot x =
(cosx)/(sinx) , cosec x =
(1)/(sinx) , sec x =
(1)/(cosx)

Consider the left side

tanθ + cotθ

=
(sin0)/(cos0) +
(cos0)/(sin0)

=
(sin^20+cos^20)/(sin0cos0)

=
(1)/(sin0cos0)

=
(1)/(sin0) ×
(1)/(cos0)

= cosecθ × secθ

= right side , thus verified
