Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the left side

Using the trigonometric identities

csc x = [tex]\frac{1}{sinx}[/tex] and sec x = [tex]\frac{1}{cosx}[/tex]

Note that sin( [tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex] - x) = cos x

Hence

csc([tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex] - x)

= [tex]\frac{1}{sin(\frac{\pi }{2}-x) }[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{cosx}[/tex]

= sec x = right side ⇒ proven
