i'm doing trigometric equations, and i'm having trouble solving these two equations...
secx tanx - secx = 0
secx tanx + secx = 0
Please help
secx tanx - secx = 0 factor out the secx
secx [ tanx - 1] = 0
So either the sec x = 0 which is impossible ..... or ......
tanx - 1 = 0 → tanx = 1 and this occurs at pi/4 + n*pi where n is an integer
secx tanx + secx = 0 again, factor out the secx
secx [ tax + 1] = 0
secx = 0 is impossible
tanx + 1 = 0
tan x = -1 and this occurs at 3pi/4 + n*pi where n is an integer
