Answer

Showed that given statement, $\frac{\sin\theta}{\csc\theta}$ = $\sin^{2}\theta$, is an identity as left side transforms into right side.

Work Step by Step

Given statement is- $\frac{\sin\theta}{\csc\theta}$ = $\sin^{2}\theta$ Left Side = $\frac{\sin\theta}{\csc\theta}$ = $\frac{\sin\theta}{1/\sin\theta}$ (Using reciprocal identity) = $ \sin\theta \times \frac{\sin\theta}{1}$ = $\sin^{2}\theta$ = Right Side i.e. Left Side transforms into Right Side i.e. Given statement, $\frac{\sin\theta}{\csc\theta}$ = $\sin^{2}\theta$, is an identity.
