    Verify the identity

    tan x/sec x-1=sec x+1/tan x

    Verify
    cos(360 degrees-x)=cos x

    Solve
    4cos^3x-3cosx=0 for 0 less than or equal to x<2pi

    I think all 4 of your questions should be combined - and you should also state the question, not command "solve."

    Hi, Eribug19!

    Are you looking for a direct answer to the problem, or for someone to come along and teach you how to come up with the correct answer yourself, please?

    Hi again, Eribug19!

    This isn't some Univac computer where people just plug in their questions and expect an answer to pop out. People give freely of their time here to help people. It would help if you would show some initiative as to what you've already done to come up with the correct answer yourself. If you do that, you'll be more likely to have someone knowledgeable come along to tell you whether what you've done is and if not, willing to teach you how to come up with the correct answer yourself.

    Again, please click on the following link.

    Thanks!
