Simplify the expression using trigonometric identities: sec (–θ) – cos θ.

Sagot :

Answer:

sin θ . tan θ

Step-by-step explanation:

Note : -

sec ( - θ ) = sec θ

Formula / Identity : -

sec θ = 1 / cos θ

sec ( - θ ) - cos θ

= [ 1 / cos θ ] - cos θ

{ LCM = cos θ }

= [ 1 / cos θ ] - [ cos²θ / cos θ ]

= [ 1 - cos²θ ] / cos θ

{ 1 - cos²θ = sin²θ }

= sin²θ / cos θ

{ sin²θ = sin θ . sin θ }

= sin θ . sin θ / cos θ

{ sin θ / cos θ = tan θ }

= sin θ . tan θ

Hence, simplified.
