Question

These are the answer I got, but not certain if this is what the question is asking.

Establish the identity tan sec 0+1-sec Simplify the numerator of the fraction from the left side by applying the appropriate Pythagorean ldentity. sec 20-1 (Do not factor.) sec +1 Factor the numerator of the fraction from the previous step (sec0+ 1 sec 0-1) sec +1 The expression from the previous step then simplifies to sec 0 using what? 0 A. Cancellation Property and simplifying further O B. Even-Odd Identity and simplifying further ° C. Quotient Identity and simplifying further 0 D. Pythagorean Identity and simplifying further E. Reciprocal identity and simplifying further

Explanation / Answer

The first two answers are correct. However, in the end, the sec theta + 1 cancels from top and bottom, And we are left with 1 + sec theta - 1. That simplifies to just sec theta.

So, answer would be option choice A (cancellation property and simplifying further)

I hope this makes sense!
