$\"\"$

\

The equation is $\"\"$ .

\

Let the functions are $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

\

Draw a coordinate plane.

\

Graph the function $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Graph the function $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Observe the above two graphs :

\

The graphs of the two functions coincide.

\

So, the equation appears to be an identity.

\

$\"\"$

\

Check algebraically :

\

The identity is $\"\"$ .

\

Consider left hand side identity : $\"\"$ .

\

Reciprocal identity : $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

= Right hand side identity.

\

$\"\"$

\

The equation $\"\"$ represents an identity.
