Answer

Showed that given statement, $\frac{\csc\theta\tan\theta}{\sec\theta}$ = $1$, is an identity as left side transforms into right side.

Work Step by Step

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