Answer:

True.

Keys:

  • Manipulate left/right sides

Explanation:


\tan \left(\theta\right)+\cot \left(\theta\right)=\sec \left(\theta\right)\csc \left(\theta\right)\\\tan \left(\theta\right)+\cot \left(\theta\right)\\=(\cos ^2\left(\theta\right)+\sin ^2\left(\theta\right))/(\cos \left(\theta\right)\sin \left(\theta\right))\\=(1)/(\cos \left(\theta\right)\sin \left(\theta\right))\\\\\sec \left(\theta\right)\csc \left(\theta\right)\\=(1)/(\cos \left(\theta\right)\sin \left(\theta\right))

What was shown throughout this problem?

We showed that two different sides are capable of taking the same form.
