    If \[\sin \theta =\frac{{{a}^{2}}-1}{{{a}^{2}}+1},\]then the value of\[\sec \theta +\tan \theta \]will be

    A) \[\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\]                             

    B) \[\frac{a}{{{a}^{2}}+1}\]

    C) \[\sqrt{2}\,\,a\]              

    D) \[a\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\sin \theta =\frac{{{a}^{2}}-1}{{{a}^{2}}+1}\]
    In \[\Delta ABC,\]
    \[BC=\sqrt{{{(AC)}^{2}}-{{(AB)}^{2}}}\]
    \[=\sqrt{{{({{a}^{2}}+1)}^{2}}-{{({{a}^{2}}-1)}^{2}}}\]
    \[=\sqrt{{{a}^{4}}+1+2{{a}^{2}}-{{a}^{4}}-1+2{{a}^{2}}}\]
    \[=\sqrt{4{{a}^{2}}}=2a\]
    \[\therefore \]\[\sec \theta +tan\theta =\frac{{{a}^{2}}+1}{2a}+\frac{{{a}^{2}}-1}{2a}\]
    \[=\frac{{{a}^{2}}+1+{{a}^{2}}-1}{2a}=\frac{2{{a}^{2}}}{2a}=a\]
