prove (1+sec(θ))/(sec^2(θ))=1+cos^2(θ)

prove

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

False

Solution steps

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

Show that the two sides are not equal

For

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

plug in

θ = 1

\frac{1 + sec ( 1 )}{sec ^{2} ( 1 )} = 0.83222 \dots

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

Refine to a decimal form

= 0.83222 \dots

1 + cos^{2} (1) = 1.29192 \dots

1 + cos^{2} (1)

Refine to a decimal form

= 1.29192 \dots

The two sides are not equal

\Rightarrow False
