Simplified expression of \(1-\dfrac{\sin ^2 y}{1+\cos y}+\dfrac{1+\cos y}{\sin y}-\dfrac{\sin y}{1-\cos y}\) is
- A \(\cos y\)
- B 1
- C 0
- D \(\sin y\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\cos y\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The given expression is \(E = 1 - \dfrac{\sin^{2} y}{1 + \cos y} + \dfrac{1 + \cos y}{\sin y} - \dfrac{\sin y}{1 - \cos y}\). Using the identity \(\sin^{2} y = 1 - \cos^{2} y = (1 - \cos y)(1 + \cos y)\), the second term simplifies as:…
