Verifying Trigonometric Identities

Remember that a conditional equation is true for only some values in the domain. So you solve the equation by finding those values which make it true.
Examples 2x2 + 3 = 53 x = ±5
cos x = -1 x = π, 3π, 5π…

An identity is an equation that is true for all values in the domain. You simply perform algebraic steps to verify that it is true.
Examples 5(x+3)2 = 5x2 +30x +45
sin x sec x = tan x

GuidelinesWork with one side at a time. It is
often better to work with the more complicated side first.
Look for chances to factor, add fractions, FOIL, or simplify a fraction.
Look for chances to make substitutions using identities.
If you can’t do anything else, try changing all terms to sines and cosines.

And most importantly…Try something! Don’t just stare at
a problem. I often don’t know where a problem is going until I am in the middle of it. There are usually multiple ways to solve a problem.
These techniques take lots of practice and will get easier with practice!
