prove cos(x)-sec(x)=-sin(x)tan(x)

prove

cos (x) - sec (x) = - sin (x) tan (x)

True

Solution steps

cos (x) - sec (x) = - sin (x) tan (x)

Manipulating left side

cos (x) - sec (x)

Express with sin, cos

= \frac{- 1 + cos ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Rewrite using trig identities

= - \frac{sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Rewrite using trig identities

- sin (x) tan (x)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True

tan (2 a) - tan (a) = tan (a) sec (2 a)

sin^{2} (x) - 4 cos^{2} (x) = 5 sin^{2} (x) - 4

\frac{cot ( x ) - 1}{cot ( x ) + 1} = \frac{cos ( 2 x )}{1 + sin ( 2 x )}

\frac{1 + tan ^{2} ( u )}{1 - tan ^{2} ( u )} = \frac{1}{cos ^{2} ( u ) - sin ^{2} ( u )}

csc (θ) + cot (θ) = \frac{sin ( θ )}{1 - cos ( θ )}
