example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.

Sec x = 1/Cosx
Pi radians = 180 degress
Pi/12 = 180/12 = 15 degrees.
Sec15° = 1/Cos15°
Sec pi/12 = Sec 15° = 1/Cos 15°
Cos 15° = 0.9659 using a calculator.
Sec pi/12 = Sec 15° = 1/Cos 15° = 1/0.9659 = 1.0353
Sec Pi/12 = 1.0353
