Simplify the expression.
Answer:
The answer is (b) cscx
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ secx = 1/cosx
∵ tanx = sinx/cosx
∴ secx/tanx = 1/cosx ÷ sinx/cosx
= 1/cosx × cosx/sinx
= cscx
Answer:
Choice b is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given an expression.
[tex]\frac{secx}{tanx}[/tex]
We have to simplify given expression.
Since, we know that
secx is reciprocal of cosx.
[tex]secx=\frac{1}{cosx}[/tex]
tanx is ratio of sinx to cosx.
[tex]tanx=\frac{sinx}{cosx}[/tex]
Putting above formulas in given expression ,we have
[tex]\frac{1}{cosx}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{sinx}{cosx}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{cosx}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{cosx}{sinx}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{sinx}[/tex]
Hence, cscx is reciprocal of sinx.
[tex]\frac{secx}{tanx}[/tex] = cscx
