I'll just do the first one: tan(t) += sec(t) Rationalize the denominator of the second term by multiplying it by tan(t) + tan(t) + tan(t) + You know the identity . When it is solved like this the right side is the same form as the denominator and so we can write as tan(t) + And we cancel the cos(t) on top into the cos²(t) in the bottom tan(t) + tan(t) + Now we substitute for : Combine the fractions (they already have a common denominator): Edwin
