1   cos2αsin2αsinαcosα=2cot2α

2   1+t1t1t1+t,  where 

       t=tanα=(1+t)2(1t)21t2=4t1t2=2×2tanα1tan2α=2tan2α

         Hence, (2) is incorrect. 

3    1+t1t+1t1+t=(1+t)2+(1t)21t2=21+t21t2=2cos2α=2sec2α

           Hence, (3) is correct. 

4   tanα+cotα=1cosαsinα=2sin2α=2cosec2α

         Hence, (4) is incorrect.
