Sample questions
-
1.Prove the trigonometric identity by selecting the correct simplified form of the left-hand side (LHS): $(\csc A - \sin A)(\sec A - \cos A) \sec^2 A$
- A.$\frac{\sin A}{\cos A} = \tan A$
- B.$\frac{\cos A}{\sin A} = \cot A$
- C.$\frac{1}{\sin A \cos A} = \csc A \sec A$
- D.$\sin A \cos A = \frac{1}{2} \sin 2A$
-
2.Which of the following correctly proves the identity: $\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sec A + \tan A$?
- A.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{(1 + \sin A)^2}{1 - \sin^2 A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{\cos A} = \sec A + \tan A$
- B.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{1 - \sin A}{1 + \sin A}} = \frac{1 - \sin A}{\cos A} = \sec A - \tan A$
- C.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A} = \frac{1}{\cos A} = \sec A$
- D.$\sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A}} = \sqrt{\frac{1 + \sin A}{1 - \sin A} \cdot \frac{\cos A}{\cos A}} = \frac{1 + \sin A}{\sin A} = \csc A + 1$
-
