Detailed Solution


We are given that a1,a2,a3,..an are in A.P with common difference d(d≠0)
We are asked to prove that
 sin d(csc a1 csca2 +csc a2 csc a3+ ....+csc an−1csc an)=cot a1−cot an
Let us assume that the LHS of given result as
L= sin d(csc a1 csca2 +csc a2 csc a3+ ....+csc an−1csc an)
We know that the formula of cosecant function as cscθ=1sinθ
By using the above formula and multiplying the outside term to inside the bracket in LHS we get
L=sin d(1sina1sina2+1sina2sina3+...+1sinan-1sinan)
L=sindsina1sina2+sindsina2sina3+...+sindsinan-1sinan
We know that the condition that the common difference of an A.P is given as the difference of any two consecutive terms in the A.P that is if a1,a2,a3,..an  are in A.P with common difference d then
d=a2a1=a3-a2=....=an−an−1
Now, let us use the required values in the required terms of the above equation then we get
L= sin(a2-a1)sina1sina2+sin(a3-a2)sina2sina3+...+sin(an-an-1)sinan-1sinan
We know that the formula of composite angle for sine function as
sin(A−B)=sinAcosB−cosAsinB
By using this formula of composite angle to the above equation we get
 L= = sina2cosa1-cosa2sina1sina1sina2+sina3cosa2-cosa3sina2)sina2sina3+...+ sinancosan-1-cosansinan-1)sinan-1sinan
Now, let us divide the each term to individual terms then we get
L=cota1−cota2+cota2−cota3+cota3−cota4+...+cotan-1−cotan
L=cota1−cotan
Here we can see that the value of LHS is equal to RHS
Therefore we can conclude that the required result has been proved that is
sin d(csc a1 csca2 +csc a2 csc a3+ ....+csc an−1csc an)=cot a1−cot an
