Given:
cot θ (1 + sin θ) = 4m
⇒ \((\frac{\cos \theta} { \sin \theta})\) (1 + sin θ) = 4m ----(1)
Also, cot θ (1 – sin θ) = 4n
⇒ \((\frac{\cos \theta} { \sin \theta})\) (1 – sin θ) = 4n ----(2)
Multiplying (1) and (2), we get,
\(\Rightarrow\left(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta} { \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)\left(1-\sin ^{2} \theta\right)=16 \mathrm{mn}\left[\because \cos ^{2} \theta=1-\sin ^{2} \theta\right] \)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{\cos ^{4} \theta} { 16 \sin ^{2} \theta}=\mathrm{mn}\) ----(3)
Now,
Squaring and adding equation \((1)\) and \((2)\), we can write,
\( 16\left(m^{2}+n^{2}\right)=\left(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta} { \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)\left(1+\sin ^{2} \theta+2 \sin \theta+1+\sin ^{2} \theta-2 \sin \theta\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow\left(m^{2}+n^{2}\right)=(\frac{1 }{ 8})\left(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta} { \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)\left(1+\sin ^{2} \theta\right) \)
Squaring both sides,
\(\Rightarrow\left(m^{2}+n^{2}\right)^{2}=(\frac{1 }{64})\left(\frac{\cos ^{4} \theta} { \sin ^{4} \theta}\right)\left(1+\sin ^{2} \theta\right)^{2}\)
Comparing with equation (3),
\(\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{m}^{2}+\mathrm{n}^{2}\right)^{2} \neq \mathrm{mn}\)
Also, \(\left(m^{2}+n^{2}\right)^{2} \neq m^{2} n^{2}\)
Squaring and substracting equation \((1)\) and \((2)\), we can write,
\( 16\left(m^{2}-n^{2}\right)=\left(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta} { \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)\left(1+\sin ^{2} \theta+2 \sin \theta-1-\sin ^{2} \theta+2 \sin \theta\right) \)
\(\Rightarrow\left(m^{2}-n^{2}\right)=(\frac{1} { 4})\left(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta} { \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)(\sin \theta) \)
Squaring both sides,
\(\Rightarrow\left(m^{2}-n^{2}\right)^{2}=(\frac{1} { 16})\left(\frac{\cos ^{4} \theta} { \sin ^{4} \theta}\right)\left(\sin ^{2} \theta\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow\left(m^{2}-n^{2}\right)^{2}=\left(\frac{\cos ^{4} \theta }{ 16 \sin ^{2} \theta}\right)\)
Comparing with equation (3),
\(\left(m^{2}-n^{2}\right)^{2}=m n\)
