Proved.

Explanation:

Given: sec2(x)sec2(x)1=csc2(x)

Because cos(x)sec(x)=1, we shall multiply the the fraction by 1 in the form cos2(x)cos2(x):

cos2(x)cos2(x)sec2(x)sec2(x)1=csc2(x)

This simplifies to the following:

11cos2(x)=csc2(x)

We know that 1cos2(x)=sin2(x):

1sin2(x)=csc2(x)

We know that csc2(x)=1sin2(x)

csc2(x)=csc2(x)
