Use CSS to hide it by default:

#div1 {
    display: none;
}

Note that jQuery's live() method is deprecated, and shouldn't be used. It was replaced by on(). Also, your #div1 element has the runat="server" attribribute set on it, which means ASP.Net will automatically generate an id attribute for that element at run time. You will need to retrieve that id using the ClientID method:

$(document).on('click', '#btn', function() {
    $('#<%= div1.ClientID %>').toggle();
});
