sec(x)csc(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im just confused as to what identities are used for the problem. Thanx :0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add them as fractions and simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be sin^2x+cos^2x=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are write

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Cross multiply the fractions to add them together:\[\frac{ \sin x }{ \cos x} + \frac{ \cos x }{ \sin x} = \frac{ \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x }{ \cos x \sin x } = \frac{ 1 }{ \cos x \sin x}\] And then you have what ThreeOne posted.
