prove (1+tan^2(θ))/(tan(θ))=sec(θ)csc(θ)

Solution

prove

\frac{1 + tan ^{2} ( θ )}{tan ( θ )} = sec (θ) csc (θ)

Solution

True

Solution steps

\frac{1 + tan ^{2} ( θ )}{tan ( θ )} = sec (θ) csc (θ)

Manipulating left side

\frac{1 + tan ^{2} ( θ )}{tan ( θ )}

Express with sin, cos

\frac{1 + tan ^{2} ( θ )}{tan ( θ )}

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{1 + ( \frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )} ) ^{2}}{\frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )}}

Simplify

\frac{1 + ( \frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )} ) ^{2}}{\frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )}} : \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

\frac{1 + ( \frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )} ) ^{2}}{\frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )}}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{( 1 + ( \frac{s i n ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )} ) ^{2} ) cos ( θ )}{sin ( θ )}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{cos ( θ ) ( \frac{s i n ^{2} ( θ )}{c o s ^{2} ( θ )} + 1 )}{sin ( θ )}

Join

1 + \frac{sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )} : \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

1 + \frac{sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

Convert element to fraction:

1 = \frac{1 cos ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

= \frac{1 \cdot cos ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )} + \frac{sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{1 \cdot cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

Multiply:

1 \cdot cos^{2} (θ) = cos^{2} (θ)

= \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

= \frac{\frac{c o s ^{2} ( θ ) + s i n ^{2} ( θ )}{c o s ^{2} ( θ )} cos ( θ )}{sin ( θ )}

Multiply

\frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )} cos (θ) : \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ )}

\frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )} cos (θ)

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{( cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ ) ) cos ( θ )}{cos ^{2} ( θ )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (θ)

= \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ )}

= \frac{\frac{c o s ^{2} ( θ ) + s i n ^{2} ( θ )}{c o s ( θ )}}{sin ( θ )}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

= \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

= \frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

Rewrite using trig identities

\frac{cos ^{2} ( θ ) + sin ^{2} ( θ )}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

Use the Pythagorean identity:

cos^{2} (x) + sin^{2} (x) = 1

= \frac{1}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

= \frac{1}{cos ( θ ) sin ( θ )}

Rewrite using trig identities

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

sin (x) = \frac{1}{csc ( x )}

\frac{1}{cos ( θ ) \frac{1}{c s c ( θ )}}

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

cos (x) = \frac{1}{sec ( x )}

\frac{1}{\frac{1}{s e c ( θ )} \cdot \frac{1}{c s c ( θ )}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{\frac{1}{s e c ( θ )} \cdot \frac{1}{c s c ( θ )}}

Multiply

\frac{1}{sec ( θ )} \cdot \frac{1}{csc ( θ )} : \frac{1}{sec ( θ ) csc ( θ )}

\frac{1}{sec ( θ )} \cdot \frac{1}{csc ( θ )}

Multiply fractions:

\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b \cdot d}

= \frac{1 \cdot 1}{sec ( θ ) csc ( θ )}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 1 = 1

= \frac{1}{sec ( θ ) csc ( θ )}

= \frac{1}{\frac{1}{s e c ( θ ) c s c ( θ )}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{1}{\frac{b}{c}} = \frac{c}{b}

= \frac{sec ( θ ) csc ( θ )}{1}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{1} = a

= sec (θ) csc (θ)

sec (θ) csc (θ)

sec (θ) csc (θ)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
