    The expression \[(1+\tan x+{{\tan }^{2}}x)\] \[(1-\cot x+{{\cot }^{2}}x)\] has the positive values for x, given by

    A) \[0\le x\le \frac{\pi }{2}\]

    B) \[0\le x\le \pi \]

    C) For all \[x\in R\]

    D) \[x\ge 0\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The expression is \[\frac{(1+\tan x+{{\tan }^{2}}x)(1+{{\tan }^{2}}x-\tan x)}{{{\tan }^{2}}x}\]   = \[\frac{{{(1+{{\tan }^{2}}x)}^{2}}-{{\tan }^{2}}x}{{{\tan }^{2}}x}\] Obviously, \[1+{{\tan }^{2}}x\ge {{\tan }^{2}}x,\text{  }\forall \text{ }x\]. Hence it is positive for all value of x.
