Answer:

C. 6.2y can be combined with -3/8y.

Step-by-step explanation:

6.2y can be combined with -3/8y because both numbers have the same variable x. All of the other choices have different variable that are not like terms.

Given: The following functions

$A)cos^2\theta=sin^2\theta-1$ $B)sin\theta=\frac{1}{csc\theta}$ $\begin{gathered} C)sec\theta=\frac{1}{cot\theta} \\ D)cot\theta=\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta} \\ E)1+cot^2\theta=csc^2\theta \end{gathered}$

To Determine: The trigonometry identities given in the functions

Solution

Verify each of the given function

$\begin{gathered} cos^2\theta=sin^2\theta-1 \\ Note\text{ that} \\ sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1 \\ cos^2\theta=1-sin^2\theta \\ Therefore \\ cos^2\theta sin^2\theta-1,NOT\text{ }IDENTITIES \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} sin\theta=\frac{1}{csc\theta} \\ Note\text{ that} \\ csc\theta=\frac{1}{sin\theta} \\ sin\theta\times csc\theta=1 \\ sin\theta=\frac{1}{csc\theta} \\ Therefore \\ sin\theta=\frac{1}{csc\theta},is\text{ an identities} \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} sec\theta=\frac{1}{cot\theta} \\ note\text{ that} \\ cot\theta=\frac{1}{tan\theta} \\ tan\theta cot\theta=1 \\ tan\theta=\frac{1}{cot\theta} \\ Therefore, \\ sec\theta\ne\frac{1}{cot\theta},NOT\text{ IDENTITY} \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} cot\theta=\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta} \\ Note\text{ that} \\ cot\theta=\frac{1}{tan\theta} \\ cot\theta=1\div tan\theta \\ tan\theta=\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} \\ So, \\ cot\theta=1\div\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} \\ cot\theta=1\times\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta} \\ cot\theta=\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta} \\ Therefore \\ cot\theta=\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta},is\text{ an Identity} \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} 1+cot^2\theta=csc^2\theta \\ csc^2\theta-cot^2\theta=1 \\ csc^2\theta=\frac{1}{sin^2\theta} \\ cot^2\theta=\frac{cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta} \\ So, \\ \frac{1}{sin^2\theta}-\frac{cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta} \\ \frac{1-cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta} \\ Note, \\ cos^2\theta+sin^2\theta=1 \\ sin^2\theta=1-cos^2\theta \\ So, \\ \frac{1-cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta}=\frac{sin^2\theta}{sin^2\theta}=1 \\ Therefore \\ 1+cot^2\theta=csc^2\theta,\text{ is an Identity} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the following are identities
