Solution:
Consider the given trigonometric equation
cosecθ−cotθ=2017.....(1) We know that,
cosec2θ−cot2θ=1 (cosecθ−cotθ)(cosecθ+cotθ)=1cosecθ+cotθ=cosecθ+cotθ=.....(2)Add equation (1) and (2).
2cosecθ=2017+cosecθ=[2017+]>0Therefore,
θ lies in I or II quadrant.
Subtracting equation (1) from (2),
2cotθ=−2017cotθ=(−2017)<0Therefore,
θ lies in II and III quadrant.
Hence,
theta lies in II quadrant
