Questions
  1. Question
    Three of these identities are false.
    Choices
    1. Item
      1 + cot²x = cosec²x
      Correct
      Yes
    2. Explanation
      sec goes with tan, not cot.
      Item
      1 + cot²x = sec²x
    3. Explanation
      The identity is a SUM, not a difference.
      Item
      cos²x − sin²x = 1
    4. Explanation
      Cosine is even, so the sign does not flip.
      Item
      cos(−x) = −cos x
