Is Sec2x = 1 an identity? ( 1 - Sinx )( 1 + Sinx)
- A.
True
- B.
False
- C.
Maybe
- D.
It depends
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The given expression is (1 - Sinx)(1 + Sinx). This expression can be simplified to 1 - Sin^2x using the identity (a + b)(a - b) = a^2 - b^2. Since Sin^2x is equal to 1 - Cos^2x, the expression can be further simplified to Cos^2x. Therefore, the expression is equal to Cos^2x, which is an identity. Therefore, the correct answer is true.Rate this question:

True or false, Tanx + TanySecx = Tan ( x + y ) ? Cosx + TanySinx
- A.
True
- B.
False
- C.
Maybe
- D.
It depends
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The given equation is "Tanx + TanySecx = Tan(x + y)". However, the correct equation should be "Tanx + TanySecx = Tan(x + y) + Cosx + TanySinx". Therefore, the answer is false.Rate this question:

Is Sin^2 x + Sin^2 ( x + y ) + 2SinxCosxSin ( x + y ) = Sin^2 y ?
- A.
True
- B.
False
- C.
Maybe
- D.
It depends
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The given equation is true. This can be proven by using the trigonometric identity: Sin^2(x) + Cos^2(x) = 1. By substituting Sin^2(x) with (1 - Cos^2(x)) in the equation, we can simplify it to: (1 - Cos^2(x)) + Sin^2(x + y) + 2Sin(x)Cos(x)Sin(x + y) = Sin^2(y). Simplifying further, we get: 1 + Sin^2(x + y) + 2Sin(x)Cos(x)Sin(x + y) = Sin^2(y). Since 1 + Sin^2(x + y) is equal to Sin^2(y) according to the trigonometric identity, the equation is true.Rate this question:

What is ( Sinx + Cosy )^2 ?
- A.
Sin^2x + Cos^2x
- B.

- C.
2SinxCosy
- D.
SinxCosy + CosxSiny
- E.
Sin^2x + 2SinxCosy + Cos^2y
Correct Answer
E. Sin^2x + 2SinxCosy + Cos^2yExplanation
The given expression is (Sin x + Cos y)^2. When we expand this expression, we get Sin^2 x + 2Sin x Cos y + Cos^2 y. Therefore, the correct answer is Sin^2 x + 2Sin x Cos y + Cos^2 y.Rate this question:

- B.
2CosxSecx
- C.
1
- D.
Tan^2 2x
- E.
Tan^2 x
Correct Answer
D. Tan^2 2xExplanation
The given expression is equal to Tan^2 2x. This can be derived using trigonometric identities. Cos^2x can be written as 1 - Sin^2x, and Sec^2x can be written as 1 + Tan^2x. By substituting these values into the expression, we get 1 - Sin^2x + 1 + Tan^2x. Simplifying further, we get 2 - Sin^2x + Tan^2x. Using the identity Tan^2x = Sin^2x / Cos^2x, we can rewrite the expression as 2 - Sin^2x + Sin^2x / Cos^2x. Combining like terms, we get 2 + Sin^2x / Cos^2x. Finally, using the identity Sin^2x / Cos^2x = Tan^2x, we arrive at Tan^2 2x.Rate this question:

Is 2Sec^2 xCos^2 x = 2 an identity?
- A.
True
- B.
False
- C.
Maybe
- D.
It depends
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The given expression, 2Sec^2 xCos^2 x, simplifies to 2, which is a constant value regardless of the value of x. Therefore, the expression is an identity, meaning it holds true for all values of x.Rate this question:

Which of the following is not an identity with Cos2x?
- A.
1 - Sin^2 x
- B.
2Cosx - 1
- C.
Cos^2 x - Sin^2 x
- D.
1 - 2Sin^2 x
Correct Answer
A. 1 - Sin^2 xExplanation
The given expression is 1 - Sin^2 x. This can be simplified using the identity Cos^2 x = 1 - Sin^2 x. By substituting this identity into the expression, we get 1 - Sin^2 x = Cos^2 x, which is an identity with Cos2x. Therefore, the correct answer is 1 - Sin^2 x, as it is not an identity with Cos2x.Rate this question:

Is Sinx + Cosx = 1 an identity?
- A.
True
- B.
False
- C.
Maybe
- D.
it depends
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The equation Sinx + Cosx = 1 is not an identity because it is not true for all values of x. There are certain values of x for which the equation holds true, but there are also values for which it does not hold true. Therefore, it cannot be considered an identity.Rate this question:
