Questions and Answers

What is the definition of the quotient identity?

  • tan θ = sin θ / cos θ for all values of θ, except where sin θ = 0 and cos θ ≠ 0
  • tan θ = sin θ / cos θ for all values of θ
  • tan θ = sin θ / cos θ for all values of θ, except where sin θ = 0
  • tan θ = cos θ / sin θ for all values of θ, except where cos θ = 0 (correct)

What is the square identity in trigonometry?

  • sin θ + cos θ = 1
  • sin θ × cos θ = 1
  • sin θ - cos θ = 1
  • sin² θ + cos² θ = 1 (correct)

Why do we replace 1 with sin² θ + cos² θ in trigonometric expressions?

  • To eliminate sine and cosine terms
  • To simplify the expression (correct)
  • To make the expression more complex
  • To introduce a quotient identity
