Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(A = \sec^2\theta - \sin^2\theta, B = \sin^2\theta, H = -\tan\theta\) \(m_1 + m_2 = -\frac{2H}{B} = -\frac{-2\tan\theta}{\sin^2\theta} = \frac{2\sin\theta/\cos\theta}{\sin^2\theta} = \frac{2}{\sin\theta\cos\theta}\)…
