Question

Verify the identity!

Answer 1

\[\cot \theta *\sec \theta =\csc \theta \]

Answer 2

@timo86m ?

Answer 3

Convert them into sin and cos, what do you get?

Answer 4

2nd method is to graph left side then right side and if they match at each point it is an ID however. I think most professors want it algabraically.

Answer 5

\[\frac{ \cos \theta }{ \sin \theta }*\frac{ 1 }{ \cos \theta }\]

Answer 6

im confused

Answer 7

What part?

Answer 8

go with luigis explanation is better

Answer 9

look at graph they lay right on top of eachother.

Answer 10

i have a calc i dont have a thetha sign though.. and that graph doesnt help me cuse i dont understand it

Answer 11

the graph is an ID cuzz it lays right on top of it.

but here it is algebriacly

Answer 12

Okay but it says verify the identity so im confused what to put down

Answer 13

cot =a/o
sec=h/a
csc=h/o

so i think

cot(x)*sec(x) = csc(x) is
a/o * h/a = h/0 confirm that somehow think in terms of just a o and h :D I thinkk.

Answer 14

a/o * h/a = h/o

Answer 15

okay but it says verify so i write what you wrote down

Answer 16

let me draw it :D
