prove sec(x)*sin(x)=tan(x)

prove

sec (x) \cdot sin (x) = tan (x)

True

Solution steps

sec (x) sin (x) = tan (x)

Manipulating left side

sec (x) sin (x)

Express with sin, cos

sec (x) sin (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

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

Simplify

\frac{1}{cos ( x )} sin (x) : \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

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

Multiply fractions:

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

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

Multiply:

1 \cdot sin (x) = sin (x)

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

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

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

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

= tan (x)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
