prove sec(30)-sin(30)tan(30)=cos(30)

Solution

prove

sec (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (3 0^{\circ}) tan (3 0^{\circ}) = cos (3 0^{\circ})

Solution

True

Solution steps

sec (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (3 0^{\circ}) tan (3 0^{\circ}) = cos (3 0^{\circ})

Manipulating left side

sec (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (3 0^{\circ}) tan (3 0^{\circ})

Simplify

sec (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (3 0^{\circ}) tan (3 0^{\circ}) : \frac{3}{2}

sec (3 0^{\circ}) - sin (3 0^{\circ}) tan (3 0^{\circ})

sec (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{2 3}{3}

sec (3 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

sec (3 0^{\circ}) = \frac{2 3}{3}

= \frac{3}{2 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 3 = 6

= \frac{3}{6}

= \frac{2 3}{3} - \frac{3}{6}

Simplify

Least Common Multiplier (LCM)

Prime factorization of

3

3

is a prime number, therefore no factorization is possible

= 3

Prime factorization of

6 : 2 \cdot 3

6

6

divides by

26 = 3 \cdot 2

= 2 \cdot 3

2, 3

are all prime numbers, therefore no further factorization is possible

= 2 \cdot 3

Multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either

6

= 3 \cdot 2

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= 6

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

For

\frac{2 3}{3} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

2

\frac{2 3}{3} = \frac{2 3 \cdot 2}{3 \cdot 2} = \frac{4 3}{6}

= \frac{4 3}{6} - \frac{3}{6}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{4 3 - 3}{6}

Add similar elements:

43 - 3 = 33

= \frac{3 3}{6}

Cancel the common factor:

3

= \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}

Manipulating right side

cos (3 0^{\circ})

Simplify

= \frac{3}{2}

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
