Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to verify the equation:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+\sin\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta

To start, we can multiply the fraction by (1 - sin(θ)). This yields:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+\sin\theta}\left(\frac{1-\sin\theta}{1-\sin\theta}\right) = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta

Simplify. The denominator uses the difference of two squares pattern:

\displaystyle \frac{1-\sin\theta}{\underbrace{1-\sin^2\theta}_{(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2}} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta

Recall that sin²(θ) + cos²(θ) = 1. Hence, cos²(θ) = 1 - sin²(θ). Substitute:

\displaystyle \displaystyle \frac{1-\sin\theta}{\cos^2\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta

Split into two separate fractions:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{\cos^2\theta} -\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos^2\theta} = \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta

Rewrite the two fractions:

\displaystyle \left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\right)^2-\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\cdot \frac{1}{\cos\theta}=\sec^2\theta - \sec\theta \tan\theta

By definition, 1 / cos(θ) = sec(θ) and sin(θ)/cos(θ) = tan(θ). Hence:

\displaystyle \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta \stackrel{\checkmark}{=}  \sec^2\theta - \sec\theta\tan\theta

Hence verified.

Write an inequality for the graph.
kap26 [50]

Answer:

y ≤ |x – 5| + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph below has the vertex (5,5). This means that in the equation the function has been shifted up by addition of 5 and shifted right by subtraction of 5. This means y ≤ |x – 5| + 5 or y ≥ |x – 5| + 5 are the only options.

To determine, test a point from the shaded region like (0,0).

y ≤ |x – 5| + 5 is the solution.
