Question

secθ/cosθ can not be written as


1/cos2Θ
cos2Θ
sec2Θ -----> I know it can be written as this, but Im not sure about the other two

Answer 1

im pretty sure its the first one

Answer 2

I thought that too, but my friend said it was wrong.

Answer 3

well sec is 1/cos and cos is cos/1 so i dont see how cos can end up in the denominator..

Answer 4

Ill get another opinion too @hartnn

Answer 5

Thats exactly what I said but she confused me

Answer 6

smart choice, sorry i cant help better :/ all i know is that sec is 1/cos and cos is cos over 1 so technically they would cancel each other out..

Answer 12

sec x = 1/ cos x .....so. cos x =1/sec x also
sec x /(1/sec x ) = sec^2 x
and
(1/cos x)/cos x = 1/cos^2 x
so, it can be written as
sec^2 x or 1/cos^2 x
but not cos^2 x
i know it doesn't affect your score now, but i wanted you to know the standard relation, sec x=1/cos x

Answer 13

Thank You! @hartnn
