Question Number 93952 by oustmuchiya@gmail.com last updated on 16/May/20

Express the following as functions  of A:  (i) sec(A−((3π)/2))  (ii) cosec(A−(π/2))  (iii) tan(A−((3π_ )/2))  (iv) cos(720°+A)  (v) tan (A+π)

$${Express}\:{the}\:{following}\:{as}\:{functions} \\ $$$${of}\:\boldsymbol{{A}}: \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{i}\right)\:{sec}\left({A}−\frac{\mathrm{3}\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\:\:\left(\mathrm{ii}\right)\:{cosec}\left({A}−\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{iii}\right)\:{tan}\left({A}−\frac{\mathrm{3}\pi_{} }{\mathrm{2}}\right)\:\:\left(\mathrm{iv}\right)\:{cos}\left(\mathrm{720}°+{A}\right) \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{v}\right)\:{tan}\:\left({A}+\pi\right) \\ $$

I think they already are functions of A  anyway we can simplify  1⟩ sec(270°−A)=cosec A  2⟩ −cosec(90°−A)=−sec A  3⟩ −tan(270°−A)=−cot A  4⟩ cos(360°×2+A)=cos A  5⟩ tan(180°+A)=−tan A

$${I}\:{think}\:{they}\:{already}\:{are}\:{functions}\:{of}\:{A} \\ $$$${anyway}\:{we}\:{can}\:{simplify} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}\rangle\:{sec}\left(\mathrm{270}°−{A}\right)={cosec}\:{A} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}\rangle\:−{cosec}\left(\mathrm{90}°−{A}\right)=−{sec}\:{A} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}\rangle\:−{tan}\left(\mathrm{270}°−{A}\right)=−{cot}\:{A} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4}\rangle\:{cos}\left(\mathrm{360}°×\mathrm{2}+{A}\right)={cos}\:{A} \\ $$$$\mathrm{5}\rangle\:{tan}\left(\mathrm{180}°+{A}\right)=−{tan}\:{A} \\ $$

A million thanks to you indeed

$${A}\:{million}\:{thanks}\:{to}\:{you}\:{indeed} \\ $$

well the last one is wrong tan(180°+A)=tan A anyway a piece of advice :- read a lot!
