# Is the trigonometry we are doing correct?

I am considering $\cos\theta=\sec\theta$then $\cos\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}$ $=>\cos^2\theta=1$ $=>\cos\theta=1$ $=>\theta=0^\circ$here $\sin\theta=\sin 0^\circ=0.$ the next way again consider $\cos\theta=\sec\theta$ $=>\frac{adj}{hyp}=\frac{hyp}{adj}$ $=>\frac{adj^2}{hyp^2}=1$ $=>\cos^2\theta=1$ $=>\cos\theta=-1$ nothing too interesting here

Note: $$\cos ^2 \theta = 1 \not \Rightarrow \cos \theta = 1$$. Do you see why?

why staff iam sending the sqare to that side so $\cos\theta=1$ hmmm.. ttooo simple concept

If $$x^2 = 1$$, is $$x = 1$$ the only solution?

Staff - 3 years, 3 months ago

ya ya i understand your concept if $x^2=1$ then x may be -1 or +1 thanks calvin i'll change

Right, that is a very common mistake made when trying to solve such equations.

The best approach would be to say $$0 = x^2 - 1 = (x-1)(x+1)$$ and hence $$x = 1, -1$$.

thanks for your help visit my other notes and reply if there is any mistake

We can't say "concept" when we talk about "Fundamental theorem of algebra".

Remember the Pythagorean Identity: $\sin^2{\theta}+\cos^2{\theta}=1$ If $$\cos^2{\theta}=1$$, this implies that: $\sin^2{\theta}=0 \\ \sin{\theta}=0$ ¿For what angles is this true? For any angle of the form $\theta=n\pi$ As can be easily verified seeing any graph of the sine function.

Another thing... you don't just consider the first quadrant angle.. Consider also its coterminal angles..
