Topic
- Trigonometry
A branch of Mathematics about study of triangles.
- Trigonometric Identity
When an equation is always true we call it an identity.
Solution
Modifying the basic identity, we get the following.
The given equation is equivalent to the following.
It is enough to prove this equation is true.
Left-hand Side
= Right-hand Side
This is the required answer.
Prove that
Consider LHS
On rationalizing the first term, we get
Hence,
Consider RHS
On rationalizing the second term, we get
Hence,
From equation (1) and equation (2), we get
Hence, Proved

Relationship between sides and T ratios
sin θ = Opposite Side/Hypotenuse
cos θ = Adjacent Side/Hypotenuse
tan θ = Opposite Side/Adjacent Side
sec θ = Hypotenuse/Adjacent Side
cosec θ = Hypotenuse/Opposite Side
cot θ = Adjacent Side/Opposite Side
Reciprocal Identities
cosec θ = 1/sin θ
sec θ = 1/cos θ
cot θ = 1/tan θ
sin θ = 1/cosec θ
cos θ = 1/sec θ
tan θ = 1/cot θ
Co-function Identities
sin (90°−x) = cos x
cos (90°−x) = sin x
tan (90°−x) = cot x
cot (90°−x) = tan x
sec (90°−x) = cosec x
cosec (90°−x) = sec x
Fundamental Trigonometric Identities
sin²θ + cos²θ = 1
sec²θ - tan²θ = 1
cosec²θ - cot²θ = 1
