The Pythagorean identity sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)= 1 is useful in proving the identity tan(x)+sec(x)= (cos(x)/(1-sin(x)))
\n" ); document.write( " true or false
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "tan(x)+sec(x)= (cos(x)/(1-sin(x)))
\n" ); document.write( "(sin/cos) + 1/cos = cos/(1-sin)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "(1+sin)/cos = cos/(1-sin)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Cross multiply to get :
\n" ); document.write( "cos^2 = 1-sin^2
\n" ); document.write( "cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
\n" ); document.write( "Ans :: true
