3) the expression
\n" ); document.write( "sin^2 x + cos^2 x / cos x
\n" ); document.write( "is equivalent to
\n" ); document.write( "1) sin x 2) cos x 3) sec x 4) csc x
\n" ); document.write( "sin^2 + cos^2 = 1 (a basic identity. Do you need proof of it?)
\n" ); document.write( "sin^2 x + cos^2 x / cos x = 1/cos = secant(x)
\n" ); document.write( "3) sec(x)
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "4) if the probability that an event will occus is x/y , what is the probability that it will not occur?
\n" ); document.write( "1) y/x 2) -x/y 3) y - x / y 4) 1 - x / y
\n" ); document.write( "All probabilities total 100%, or 1.
\n" ); document.write( "So the probability it will not occur = 1 - x/y
\n" ); document.write( "4) 1 - (x/y)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
