x cos$\theta$ – sin$\theta$ = 1

=> x cos$\theta$ = 1 + sin$\theta$

=> x = $\frac{1}{cos$\theta$}$+$\frac{sin$\theta$}{cos$\theta$}$

=> x = sec$\theta$ + tan$\theta$ --- (i)

=> sec$\theta$ – tan$\theta$ =  (ii)

From equation (i) + (ii),

$\therefore$ Expression = x2 – (1 + x2)sin$\theta$

= x2 – (1 + x2) × $\frac{x^{2}-1}{x^{2}+1}$

= x2 – x2 + 1 = 1.
