Hey there :)
- tan²x + sec²x = 1 or 1 + tan²x = sec²x
sin²x + cos²x = 1
Divide the whole by cos²x
so 
and
so 
Therefore,
tan²x + 1 = sec²x
Take tan²x to the other side {You will have the same answer}
1 = - tan²x = sec²x or sec²x - tanx = 1
- tan²x + sec²x = 1 or 1 + tan²x = sec²x
sin²x + cos²x = 1
Divide the whole by cos²x
and
Therefore,
tan²x + 1 = sec²x
Take tan²x to the other side {You will have the same answer}
1 = - tan²x = sec²x or sec²x - tanx = 1
