    If \[x=(\sec A-\tan A)\,(\sec B-\tan B)\,(\sec C-\tan C)\] \[=(\sec A+\tan A)(\sec B+\tan B)(\sec C+\tan C),\] then \[x=\]

    A) \[0\]

    B) \[1\]

    C) \[-1\]

    D) \[\pm 1\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]\[x=(\sec A-\tan A)\,\,(\sec B-\tan B)\,\,(\sec C-\tan C)\]
    \[=(\sec A+\tan A)\,\,(\sec B+\tan B)(\sec C+\tan C)\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,(\sec A+tanA)(\sec B+\tan B)(\sec C+\tan C)\]
    \[(\sec A-\tan A)(\sec B-\tan B)(\sec C-\tan C)\]
    \[={{\{(\sec A+\tan A)(\sec B+\tan B)(\sec A+\tan A)\}}^{2}}\]\[\Rightarrow \,\,\,({{\sec }^{2}}A-{{\tan }^{2}}A)({{\sec }^{2}}B-{{\tan }^{2}}B)({{\sec }^{2}}C-{{\tan }^{2}}C)={{x}^{2}}\]\[\Rightarrow \,\,\,{{x}^{2}}=1\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x=\pm 1\]
