Pythagorean identity at least once in the proof.

M1: Attempts to multiply through by sec x in numerator and denominator (to achieve the 2sin x term). Not

dependent and may be scored before the previous M.

A1: Correct answer. Terms may be in different order. Allow minor slips in notation (e.g. a single missing x)

and recovery from missing brackets if the intent is clear, but A0 for persistent incorrect notation throughout

(e.g no x’s in the trig terms).
