(i) Start with the identity for \(\cot \theta\) and \(\tan \theta\):
\(\cot \theta = \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\) and \(\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\).
Add them: \(\cot \theta + \tan \theta = \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} + \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \frac{\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}\).
Using the double angle identity \(\sin 2\theta = 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta\), we have:
\(\frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{2}{2 \sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{2}{\sin 2\theta} = 2 \csc 2\theta\).
Thus, \(\cot \theta + \tan \theta \equiv 2 \csc 2\theta\).
(ii) We need to evaluate \(\int_{\frac{1}{6}\pi}^{\frac{1}{3}\pi} \csc 2\theta \, d\theta\).
Using the identity \(\csc 2\theta = \frac{1}{\sin 2\theta}\), the integral becomes:
\(\int \csc 2\theta \, d\theta = \int \frac{1}{\sin 2\theta} \, d\theta\).
Let \(u = 2\theta\), then \(du = 2 \, d\theta\) or \(d\theta = \frac{1}{2} \, du\).
The integral becomes \(\frac{1}{2} \int \csc u \, du\).
The integral of \(\csc u\) is \(\ln |\csc u - \cot u|\), so:
\(\frac{1}{2} \ln |\csc u - \cot u|\).
Substitute back \(u = 2\theta\):
\(\frac{1}{2} \ln |\csc 2\theta - \cot 2\theta|\).
Evaluate from \(\theta = \frac{1}{6}\pi\) to \(\theta = \frac{1}{3}\pi\):
\(\frac{1}{2} \left[ \ln |\csc \frac{2}{3}\pi - \cot \frac{2}{3}\pi| - \ln |\csc \frac{1}{3}\pi - \cot \frac{1}{3}\pi| \right]\).
Calculate the values:
\(\csc \frac{2}{3}\pi = \frac{1}{\sin \frac{2}{3}\pi} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\), \(\cot \frac{2}{3}\pi = \frac{1}{\tan \frac{2}{3}\pi} = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\).
\(\csc \frac{1}{3}\pi = \frac{1}{\sin \frac{1}{3}\pi} = 2\), \(\cot \frac{1}{3}\pi = \frac{1}{\tan \frac{1}{3}\pi} = \sqrt{3}\).
Substitute these back:
\(\frac{1}{2} \left[ \ln \left| \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right| - \ln \left| 2 - \sqrt{3} \right| \right]\).
\(\frac{1}{2} \left[ \ln \left( \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} \right) - \ln \left( 2 - \sqrt{3} \right) \right]\).
\(\frac{1}{2} \left[ \ln 3 - \ln 1 \right] = \frac{1}{2} \ln 3\).
