The equation shown is:\[ 4) \quad \frac{1 - \cot^2 \theta}{1 + \cot^2 \theta} + 1 = 2 \sin^2 \theta \]This equation is an identity involving trigonometric functions, specifically focusing on cotangent and sine. It presents a transformation operation between these functions. Understanding and proving such trigonometric identities are central in advanced mathematics, particularly in topics like calculus and analytical geometry. **Verify that each equation is an identity.**On educational platforms, this statement is often used to introduce mathematical problems where students need to prove that given equations are true for all values of the variables involved. An identity is an equation that holds true for every possible value of the variable(s). Common examples include trigonometric identities, algebraic identities, and logarithmic identities. The task would typically involve using algebraic manipulation, substitution, or other mathematical techniques to demonstrate that both sides of the equation are equivalent.
