    Find the value of\[{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta -\frac{1}{{{\cos }^{2}}\theta }\].

    A)  \[1\]                            

    B)  \[2\]

    C)  \[0\]                            

    D)  \[-1\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta -\frac{1}{{{\cos }^{2}}\theta }\] \[=\,{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta -{{\sec }^{2}}\theta \] Using  \[\left[ \begin{align}   & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta =1 \\  & {{\sec }^{2}}\theta -{{\tan }^{2}}\theta =1 \\ \end{align} \right]\] \[=\,\,\,\,\,-{{\sec }^{2}}\theta +{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta \] \[=\,\,\,\,\,-({{\sec }^{2}}\theta -{{\tan }^{2}}\theta )+({{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta )\] \[=\,\,\,\,\,-1+1=\underline{\mathbf{0}}\]
