Theorem
- $\sec 360 \degrees = \sec 2 \pi = 1$
where $\sec$ denotes secant.
Proof
\(\ds \sec 360 \degrees\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map \sec {360 \degrees - 0 \degrees}\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \sec 0 \degrees\) | Secant of Conjugate Angle | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 1\) | Secant of Zero |
$\blacksquare$
