    If someone didn’t learn enough trigonometry in school:

    1+tan^2^c = cos^2^c/cos^2^c + sin^2^c/cos^2^c = (cos^2^c + sin^2^c)/cos^2^c = 1/cos^2^c;

    sqrt(1/cos^2^c) = |sec c|

    And here is for the people who still don't get the joke

    The reading of the answer is very similar to the word “sexy”, which makes the whole sentence a reference to the song “Sexy and I Know It” by LMFAO.

      Thanks for this! While I absolutely love science, math is why I never pursued it.

      That and I’m waaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy too stupid. Lol

      But I was taught that the proof was in the pudding

      Thank you for this. Trig was definitely the hardest of the maths for me.

        I never learned it. This is one of the few times in my life where it would’ve been useful

      I learned it but promptly forgot it.

    The first thing I thought was “that’s not the formula for secant” and it’s not. I checked.

      It rearranges to secant of c
