    If \[A+B={{90}^{o}},\] then \[\frac{\tan A\operatorname{tanB}+tanAcotB}{\sin A\sec B}-\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}B}{{{\cos }^{2}}A}\] is equal to _______.

    A)             \[{{\cot }^{2}}A\]                

    B) \[{{\cot }^{2}}B\]    

    C)              \[-ta{{n}^{2}}A\]   

    D)         \[-{{\cot }^{2}}A\] 

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have,  \[A+B={{90}^{o}}\,\Rightarrow A={{90}^{o}}-B\] ?(i)             Now,  \[\frac{\tan A\tan B+\tan A\cot B}{\sin A\sec B}-\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}B}{{{\cos }^{2}}A}\]             \[=\frac{\tan ({{90}^{o}}-B)\tan B+\tan ({{90}^{o}}-B)\cot B}{\sin ({{90}^{o}}-B)\sec B}\]                         \[-\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}B}{{{\left[ \cos ({{90}^{o}}-B) \right]}^{2}}}\]  [using (i)]             \[=\frac{\cot B.\tan B+\cot B.\cot B}{\cos B.\sec B}-\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}B}{{{\sin }^{2}}B}={{\cot }^{2}}B\]
