In the proof given, BC║AD and CD║BA because: B. slopes of opposite sides are equal.

<h3>What is the Slope of Parallel Lines?</h3>

If two lines are parallel, they will have the same slope value,.

Slope = rise/run.

Slope of BC = rise/run = -2/5

Slope of AD = -2/5

Slope of BA = rise/run = -6/1 = -6

Therefore, we can conclude that BC║AD and CD║BA because: B. slopes of opposite sides are equal.

$\large \bigstar \frak{ } \large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Consider, LHS

$\begin{gathered}\rm \: \dfrac { \tan \theta + \sec \theta - 1 } { \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1 } \\ \end{gathered}$

We know,

$\begin{gathered}\boxed{\sf{ \:\rm \: {sec}^{2}x - {tan}^{2}x = 1 \: \: }} \\ \end{gathered} \\ \\ \text{So, using this identity, we get} \\ \\ \begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:\dfrac { \tan \theta + \sec \theta - ( {sec}^{2}\theta - {tan}^{2}\theta )} { \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1 } \\ \end{gathered}$

We know,

$\begin{gathered}\boxed{\sf{ \:\rm \: {x}^{2} - {y}^{2} = (x + y)(x - y) \: \: }} \\ \end{gathered} \\$

So, using this identity, we get

$\begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:\dfrac { \tan \theta + \sec \theta - (sec\theta + tan\theta )(sec\theta - tan\theta )} { \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1 } \\ \end{gathered}$

can be rewritten as

$\begin{gathered}\rm\:=\:\dfrac {(\sec \theta + tan\theta ) - (sec\theta + tan\theta )(sec\theta -tan\theta )} { \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1 } \\ \end{gathered} \\ \\ \\\begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:\dfrac {(\sec \theta + tan\theta ) \: \cancel{(1 - sec\theta + tan\theta )}} { \cancel{ \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1} } \\ \end{gathered} \\ \\ \\\begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:sec\theta + tan\theta \\\end{gathered} \\ \\ \\\begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:\dfrac{1}{cos\theta } + \dfrac{sin\theta }{cos\theta } \\ \end{gathered} \\ \\ \\\begin{gathered}\rm \: = \:\dfrac{1 + sin\theta }{cos\theta } \\ \end{gathered}$

<h2>Hence,</h2>

$\begin{gathered} \\ \rm\implies \:\boxed{\sf{ \:\rm \: \dfrac { \tan \theta + \sec \theta - 1 } { \tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1 } = \:\dfrac{1 + sin\theta }{cos\theta } \: \: }} \\ \\ \end{gathered}$
