  2. Use factoring to simplify Example 3: common factordifference of squares • sin2x csc2x – sin2x b) sec4x – tan4x Use these strategies for HW #45-53 odd

  3. Lesson 5.2 Verifying Trig Identities Goal: Get one side of the equation equal to the other. Strategy: - Work on one side to make it equal to the other side.

  4. Great first step strategies! • Start with the side that seems more complicated: (fractions, common multiples, etc.) • Combine fractions – get a common denominator. • Substitute an identity before multiplying. • Convert everything to sine and cosine. • Write as separate fractions. • Work with both sides separately. (Do not add/subtract/mult/divide to both sides. • Factor

  5. Strategy 1. Start with the side that seems more complicated: (fractions, common multiples, etc.

  6. Strategy 2. Combine fractions – get a common denominator.

  7. Strategy 3. Multiplying (tan2x + 1)(cos2x – 1) = -tan2x

  8. Strategy 4. Converting to Sines and Cosines
