Is cos 2 x sec x equals 2 cos x - sec x an identity?
Yes, it is. the basic identity is for a double angle relation: cos 2x = 2 cosx cos x -1 since sec x =1/cos x if we multiply both sides by sec x we get cos2xsec x = 2cosxcos x/cos x -1/cos x = 2cos x - sec x
What is the reciprocal of a cosine?
1/cos(x)=sec(x). sec is short for secant.
What is the integral of sec squared x?
tan(x) + C d/dx tan(x) = d/dx (sin(x))/(cos(x)) = (sin^2(x)+cos^2(x))/(cos^2(x)) = 1/(cos^2(x)) = sec^2(x) NEVER FORGET THE CONSTANT!
Should we find cos theta if sec theta equals -10?
No.
What is sec theta - 1 over sec theta?
Let 'theta' = A [as 'A' is easier to type] sec A - 1/(sec A) = 1/(cos A) - cos A = (1 - cos^2 A)/(cos A) = (sin^2 A)/(cos A) = (tan A)*(sin A) Then you can swap back the 'A' with theta
What is sec x cos x?
sec x = 1/cos x sec x cos x = [1/cos x] [cos x] = 1
Is cos 2 x sec x equals 2 cos x - sec x an identity?
Yes, it is. the basic identity is for a double angle relation: cos 2x = 2 cosx cos x -1 since sec x =1/cos x if we multiply both sides by sec x we get cos2xsec x = 2cosxcos x/cos x -1/cos x = 2cos x - sec x
How do you put sec cubed in a calculator?
sec x = 1/cos x → sec³ x = 1/cos³ x or sec³ x = (cos x)^-3 Therefore to enter sec³ x on a calculator: Newer, "natural" calculators: mathio: sec³ x → [x-power] [cos] [<angle>] [)] [navigate →] [(-)] [3] [=] lineio: sec³ x → [(] [cos] [)] [)] [x-power] [(-)] [3] [)] [=] Older, function acts on displayed number calculators: sec³ x → [angle] [cos] [x-power] [3] [±] [=]
How do you simplify sec x cot x?
sec(x)*cot(x) = (1/cos(x))*(cos(x)/sin(x)) = (1/sin(x)) = csc(x)
How do you prove tan x plus tan x sec 2x equals tan 2x?
tan x + (tan x)(sec 2x) = tan 2x work dependently on the left sidetan x + (tan x)(sec 2x); factor out tan x= tan x(1 + sec 2x); sec 2x = 1/cos 2x= tan x(1 + 1/cos 2x); LCD = cos 2x= tan x[cos 2x + 1)/cos 2x]; tan x = sin x/cos x and cos 2x = 1 - 2 sin2 x= (sin x/cos x)[(1 - 2sin2 x + 1)/cos 2x]= (sin x/cos x)[2(1 - sin2 x)/cos 2x]; 1 - sin2 x = cos2 x= (sin x/cos x)[2cos2 x)/cos 2x]; simplify cos x= (2sin x cos x)/cos 2x; 2 sinx cos x = sin 2x= sin 2x/cos 2x= tan 2x
What is the reciprocal of a cosine?
1/cos(x)=sec(x). sec is short for secant.
How do you solve the following identity sec x - cos x equals sin x tan x?
sec x - cos x = (sin x)(tan x) 1/cos x - cos x = Cofunction Identity, sec x = 1/cos x. (1-cos^2 x)/cos x = Subtract the fractions. (sin^2 x)/cos x = Pythagorean Identity, 1-cos^2 x = sin^2 x. sin x (sin x)/(cos x) = Factor out sin x. (sin x)(tan x) = (sin x)(tan x) Cofunction Identity, (sin x)/(cos x) = tan x.
1 over cos x equals what?
sec(x)=1/cos(x), by definition of secant.
Solution for tan x plus cot x divided by sec x csc x?
(tan x + cot x)/sec x . csc x The key to solve this question is to turn tan x, cot x, sec x, csc x into the simpler form. Remember that tan x = sin x / cos x, cot x = 1/tan x, sec x = 1/cos x, csc x = 1/sin x The solution is: [(sin x / cos x)+(cos x / sin x)] / (1/cos x . 1/sin x) [(sin x . sin x + cos x . cos x) / (sin x . cos x)] (1/sin x cos x) [(sin x . sin x + cos x . cos x) / (sin x . cos x)] (sin x . cos x) then sin x. sin x + cos x . cos x sin2x+cos2x =1 The answer is 1.
What is the simplest form for tanx divided by secx?
Need the fundamental identities here. tan(X) = sin(X)/cos(X) sec(X) = 1/cos(X) so tan(X)/sec(X) same as, sin(X)/cos(X) * cos(X)/1 cancel the cos(X) = sin(X) ---------------simplest form
What is Cos 2 x divided by cos x?
cos 2x = cos2 x - sin2 x = 2 cos2 x - 1; whence, cos 2x / cos x = 2 cos x - (1 / cos x) = 2 cos x - sec x.
What is the integral of sec squared x?
tan(x) + C d/dx tan(x) = d/dx (sin(x))/(cos(x)) = (sin^2(x)+cos^2(x))/(cos^2(x)) = 1/(cos^2(x)) = sec^2(x) NEVER FORGET THE CONSTANT!
