Aim #5.1: How do we verify the trigonometric identities? • The Fundamental Identities –
Example 1: Changing to Sines and cosines • Verify the identity: Sec x cot x = csc x
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity: csc x tan x = sec x
Example 2: Changing to Sines and Cosines • Verify the identity: sin x tan x + cos x = sec x
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity: cos x cot x + sin x = csc x
Example 3: Using Factoring to Verify an Identity • Verify the identity: cos x – cos x sin2 x = cos3 x
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity: sin x –sin x cos2 x = sin3 x
Example 4: Using Two Techniques • Verify the identity:
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity:
Example 5: Combining Fractional Expressions to Verify an Identity • Verify an Identity:
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity:
Example 6: Multiplying the Numerator and Denominator by the Same Factor
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity:
Example 8: Working w/ Both sides Separately to Verify the Identity
Check for Understanding: • Verify the identity:
