Verify the identity.

Where is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\left(\begin{matrix}1-\sin(x) \\ \cos (x)\end{matrix}\right)= \left(\begin{matrix}\cos(x) \\ 1+\sin(x)\end{matrix}\right)\]

I haven't even done anything yet... hang on...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, start with the pythagorean identity, I guess \[\huge \cos^2 x + \sin^2 x = 1\]

OpenStudy (raden):

if u doing from left side : 1-sin(x) / cos(x) multiply that fraction by 1+sin(x) / 1+sin(x) what u get ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and put the sin part on the other side \[\huge \cos^2 x = 1 - \sin^2 x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You know difference of two squares, right? \[\huge (\cos x)(\cos x) = (1-\sin x)(1+\sin x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and so you can divide both sides by cos x \[\huge \cos x = \frac{(1-\sin x)(1+\sin x)}{\cos x}\] And then divide both sides by 1+sin x \[\huge \frac{\cos x}{1+\sin x} = \frac{1-\sin x}{\cos x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And you're done.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem :)
