Answer:5

That is exactly correct! Just two things: First, tan,sin,cos, etc hold no meaning on their own, they need an argument. So just be sure to write tanx, cosx etc rather than just tan or cos.

Finally, you could save time on your proof by noticing on the fourth step that

1cosxsinx=1cosx1sinx=secxcscx
