If someone didn't learn enough trigonometry in school:

1+tan^2^c = cos^2^c/cos^2^c + sin^2^c/cos^2^c = (cos^2^c + sin^2^c)/cos^2^c = 1/cos^2^c;

sqrt(1/cos^2^c) = |sec c|

And here is for the people who still don't get the jokeThe reading of the answer is very similar to the word "sexy", which makes the whole sentence a reference to the song "Sexy and I Know It" by LMFAO.

Thanks for this! While I absolutely love science, math is why I never pursued it.

That and I'm waaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy too stupid. Lol
