Question
Examples from Calculus In Exercises 71-74, powers of trigonometric functions are rewritten to be useful in calculus. Verify the identity.
\(\sec ^{4} x \tan ^{2} x=\left(\tan ^{2} x+\tan ^{4} x\right) \sec ^{2} x\)
Text Transcription:
sec^4 x tan^2 x = (tan^2 x + tan^4 x)sec^2 x
Solution
The first step in solving 6.2 problem number 72 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Examples from Calculus In Exercises 71-74, powers of trigonometric functions are rewritten to be useful in calculus. Verify the identity.\(\sec ^{4} x \tan ^{2} x=\left(\tan ^{2} x+\tan ^{4} x\right) \sec ^{2} x\)Text Transcription:sec^4 x tan^2 x = (tan^2 x + tan^4 x)sec^2 x
