⦁ Follow the steps and complete the steps in the table below to prove the trigonometric identity.
⦁ Break up the denominator of the left hand side as the product of two fractions.
⦁ Rewrite each fraction property from the right side of the equation above as its equivalent identity below:
⦁ Rewrite both identities from part B in terms of only sign and cosine, using the identity below:
⦁ Simplify the numerator of the right side of the equation above so there is only one squared term
⦁ Use the Pythagorean identity below to rewrite the numerator of the right side of the equation. Remember to solve the identity for the appropriate quantity first (
⦁ Separate the right side of the equation into two fractions around the minus sign
⦁ Simplify the two fractions on the right side of the equation. Rewrite as The right side of the equation should match the given right side that was asked for in the proof.
