sec(θ)-cos(θ) simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sec(θ)-\cos(θ)\] \[\frac{ 1 }{ \cos(θ) }-\frac{ \cos(θ) }{ 1 }\] \[\frac{ 1 }{ \cos(θ) }-\frac{ \cos^2(θ) }{ \cos(θ) }\] \[\frac{ 1-\cos^2(θ) }{ \cos(θ) }\] \[\frac{ \sin^2(θ) }{ \cos(θ) }\] \[\frac{ \sin(θ) }{ \cos(θ) }\times \frac{ \sin(θ) }{ 1 }\] \[\tan(θ)\times \cos(θ)\] that's my best guess so far is it right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sin(θ)/cos(θ) × sin(θ)/1 tan(θ)×cos(θ) Are you sure it's cos(θ)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

positive its cos(θ)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How is it cos(theta)? How did you go from sin(theta)/1 to cos(theta)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait sorry yeah the last step should be tan(θ)cos(θ)

I thought you were asking about the beining
