we have that


case A) tan x = cos x/ sin x--------> is not a identity

the correct identity is

tan x=sin x/cos x------> is a ratio identity


case B) csc x = 1/ sin x-------> is a identity (Reciprocal identity)


case C) cot x = 1/ tan x ------> is a identity (Reciprocal identity)


case D) sec x = 1/ csc x-------> is not a identity

the correct identity is

sec x=1/cos x-------> is a Reciprocal identity


therefore


the answer is

B) csc x = 1/ sin x

C) cot x = 1/ tan x
