Question 830555: Write in terms of sin(theta) and cos(theta) then simplify so no quotients appear.
1. (sin(theta))(sec(theta))=tan(theta)
2. sec(theta)-cos(theta) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write in terms of sin(theta) and cos(theta) then simplify so no quotients appear.
1. (sin(theta))(sec(theta))=sin*(1/cos) = sin/cos = tan(theta)
2. sec(theta)-cos(theta)= 1/cos - cos = (1-cos^2)/cos = sin^2/cos= tan*sin
