Explain how to transform sin theta tan theta + cos theta into sec theta
Thank you. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! transform sin theta tan theta + cos theta into sec theta
-----
sin(x)*tan(x) + cos(x) = sec(x)
----
sin(x)*(sin(x)/cos(x)) + cos(x) = sec(x)
----
sin^2(x)/cos(x) + cos(x) = sec(x)
---
Multiply thru by cos(x) to get:
sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1
----
1 = 1
