S= ((sec^4 α)/(tan^2 β)) + ((sec^4 β)/(tan^2 α)) = (1/(cos^4 α)).((cos^2 β)/(sin^2 β))+(1/(cos^4 β)).((cos^2 α)/(sin^2 α))  =(((1+tan^2 α)^2 )/(tan^2 β))+(((1+tan^2 β)^2 )/(tan^2 α))  Applying Cauchy−Shwardz we have  S≥(((2+tan^2 α+tan^2 β)^2 )/(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))  =((4+(tan^2 α+tan^2 β)^2 +4(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))/(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))  =4+[tan^2 α+tan^2 β+(4/(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))]  =4+((√(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))−(2/( (√(tan^2 α+tan^2 β)))))^2   +4≥8.The equality ocurrs if and only  if  { (((√(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))=(2/( (√(tan^2 α+tan^2 β))))(1))),((((1+tan^2 α)/(tan^2 β))=((1+tan^2 β)/(tan^2 α))(2))) :}  (2)⇒tan^4 α+tan^2 α=tan^4 β+tan^2 β  ⇔(tan^2 α−tan^2 β)(tan^2 α+tan^2 β+1)=0(∗)  (1)⇒tan^2 α+tan^2 β=2.Replace into  (∗) we get tan^2 α=tan^2 β=1  Thus,S= ((sec^4 α)/(tan^2 β)) + ((sec^4 β)/(tan^2 α))  has smallest  value equal to 8 when tan^2 α=tan^2 β=1

set → { ((a=tan^2 α)),((b=tan^2 β)) :}  it suffices to determine the minimum value of  (((a+1)^2 )/b)+(((b+1)^2 )/a)  with a,b≥0. we have (((a+1)^2 )/b)+(((b+1)^2 )/a)=((a^2 +2a+1)/b)+((b^2 +2b+1)/a)   = ((a^2 /b)+(1/b)+(b^2 /a)+(1/a))+2((a/b)+(b/a))   ≥ 4 (((a^2 /b).(1/b).(b^2 /a).(1/a)))^(1/(4 ))  + 4 (√((a/b).(b/a))) = 8
