Prove the following trigonometric identities. sec theta/tan theta = csc theta (sec x + tan x)(1 - sin x/cos x) = 1
Solution
sec theta/tan theta=csc theta
sec theta=1/cos theta (reciprocal rule)
and tan theta=sin theta/cos theta (quotient rule)
1/cos theta/sin theta/cos theta (substitution postulate)
1/sin theta = csc theta (reciprocal rule)
