Q) sec+tan=100,find the value of tan+cot
Since, sec+tan=100
or 1/cos + sin/cos = 100
or 1+ sin = 100cos
Squaring both the sides
(1+ sin )(1+ sin )= 10000 (cos)((cos
or (1+ sin )(1+ sin )= 10000(1 - sin2)
or (1+ sin )(1+ sin )= 10000(1 - sin)(1 + sin)
or  (1+ sin ) = 10000(1 - sin)
or  sin = 9999/10001       (1)
therefore cos =[(1 - (9999/10001)2]1/2= (200/10001)              (2)
now ,
 tan+cot =sin/cos + cos/sin
                  = 1/sincos
 sustituting the values of sin  and cos from (1) and (2) we obtain,
tan+cot = (10001)2/[9999×200]
 

The Scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, & he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, life would not be worth living. Ofcourse I do not here speak of that beauty that strikes the senses, the beauty of qualities & appearances; not that I undervalue such beauty, far from it, but it has nothing to do with science; I mean that profounder beauty which comes from the harmoniuos order of the parts, & which a pure intelligence can grasp.
