Nice solution sir!!How about putting theta=0 :)

Of course, it will work if you putting θ = 0 but it doesn't has not proven for all cases.

What cases are you exactlybtalking about sir! sine & cosine functions are defined for all reals, that is why I went for putting theta= 0

@Deepak Kumar – I meant putting θ = 0 definitely solve the problem but it does not show that the same answer is also applicable for all other θ . It is not just about getting the right answer but rather why it is right.
A really very nice solution sir..

Let a = sin θ and b = cos θ . ⟹ T 1 = a + b and T 2 = a 2 + b 2 = 1 .
T 3 ⟹ T 6 T 4 ⟹ T 8 ⟹ T 1 0 = ( a + b ) ( a 2 + b 2 − a b ) = ( a + b ) ( 1 − a b ) = T 3 2 − 2 a 3 b 3 = ( a + b ) 2 ( 1 − a b ) 2 − 2 a 3 b 3 = 1 − 3 a 2 b 2 = T 2 2 − 2 a 2 b 2 = 1 − 2 a 2 b 2 = T 4 2 − 2 a 4 b 4 = ( 1 − 2 a 2 b 2 ) 2 − 2 a 4 b 4 = 1 − 4 a 2 b 2 + 2 a 4 b 4 = T 4 T 6 − a 4 b 6 − a 6 b 4 = ( 1 − 2 a 2 b 2 ) ( 1 − 3 a 2 b 2 ) − a 4 b 4 ( a 2 + b 2 ) = 1 − 5 a 2 b 2 + 5 a 4 b 4
Therefore,
6 T 1 0 − 1 5 T 8 + 1 0 T 6 = 6 ( 1 − 5 a 2 b 2 + 5 a 4 b 4 ) − 1 5 ( 1 − 4 a 2 b 2 + 2 a 4 b 4 ) + 1 0 ( 1 − 3 a 2 b 2 ) = 6 − 1 5 + 1 0 + ( − 3 0 + 6 0 − 3 0 ) a 2 b 2 + ( 3 0 − 3 0 ) a 4 b 4 = 1
