Question 721425: Add or subtract as indicated. Then simplify your answer if possible. Leave your answer in terms of sin θ and/or cos θ.
sin θ + 1/cos θ
1/cos theta is sec
So it would be sin theta + sec theta?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Add or subtract as indicated. Then simplify your answer if possible. Leave your answer in terms of sin θ and/or cos θ.
sin θ + 1/cos θ
1/cos theta is sec
So it would be sin theta + sec theta?
Is that correct?
----------------
sin + sec is correct, but it says to leave the answer in terms of sin and cos.

"Simplified" can be a matter of opinion.
In terms of sin & cos,
sin + 1/cos is as simple as it gets.
