Question 868276: Thanks in advance to everyone who volunteers there time to help people like me out!
theta = *
My question is this: Verify the identity sec(*) + tan(*)/cot(*)+ cos(*) = tan(*)sec(*)
Thanks again :)
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Verify the identity [sec(*) + tan(*)]/[cot(*)+ cos(*)] = tan(*)sec(*)
------
Multiply both sides by [cot+cos] to get::
sec + tan = (tan*sec)[cot + cos]
---------
sec + tan = (tan*cot*sec + tan*sec*cos
------------
sec + tan = 1*sec + tan*1
------------
sec + tan = sec + tan
------
Cheers,
