prove 1+sec^2(x)*sin^2(x)=sec^2(x)

Solution

prove

1 + sec^{2} (x) \cdot sin^{2} (x) = sec^{2} (x)

Solution

True

Solution steps

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

Manipulating left side

1 + sec^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x)

Express with sin, cos

1 + sec^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

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

Simplify

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

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

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

(\frac{1}{cos ( x )})^{2} sin^{2} (x)

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

(\frac{1}{cos ( x )})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

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

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

Multiply fractions:

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

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

Multiply:

1 \cdot sin^{2} (x) = sin^{2} (x)

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

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

Convert element to fraction:

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

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

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

Multiply:

1 \cdot cos^{2} (x) = cos^{2} (x)

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

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

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

Rewrite using trig identities

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

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

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

Rewrite using trig identities

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

\frac{1}{( \frac{1}{s e c ( x )} ) ^{2}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{( \frac{1}{s e c ( x )} ) ^{2}}

(\frac{1}{sec ( x )})^{2} = \frac{1}{sec ^{2} ( x )}

(\frac{1}{sec ( x )})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= \frac{1 ^{2}}{sec ^{2} ( x )}

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

= \frac{1}{sec ^{2} ( x )}

= \frac{1}{\frac{1}{s e c ^{2} ( x )}}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{sec ^{2} ( x )}{1}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{1} = a

= sec^{2} (x)

sec^{2} (x)

sec^{2} (x)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
