    If \[(\cos \theta +\sec \theta )=2,\]then \[({{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sec }^{2}}\theta )\] is equal to

    A) \[\frac{1}{2}\]                          

    B) 2    

    C) 4                                 

    D) \[\frac{1}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\cos \theta +\sec \theta =2\]
    \[{{(\cos \theta +\sec \theta )}^{2}}={{(2)}^{2}}\][squaring on both sides]
    \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sec }^{2}}\theta +2\cos \theta \times \sec \theta =4\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sec }^{2}}\theta +2=4\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sec }^{2}}\theta =4-2\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sec }^{2}}\theta =2\]
