sec theta- tan theta=0 for 0
Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Recall that secant is one over cosine and tangent is sine over cosine, so your problem becomes:
Which is to say:
Multiply by 
Check the unit circle, recalling that the sin value is the 
-coordinate
to see that:
\ =\ \frac{\pi}{2})
But recall that you can go around the circle as many times as you like since you didn't provide a range for the answer and that once around is 
:
where
