Algebra.Com's Answer #730544 by Boreal(15235) You can put this solution on YOUR website! The tangent is a/b \n" ); document.write( "The secant is the reciprocal of the cosine and is c/b \n" ); document.write( "1+(a^2/b^2)=(b^2+a^2)/b^2=c^2/b^2, because a^2+b^2=c^2 \n" ); document.write( "c/b is the secant, so (c/b)^2 theta is sec^2, theta \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
