have you ever solved a problem and felt like the biggest badass ever?

:Prove that [Sec(x+1)]/Tan(x) = Tan(x)/Sec(x-1)

Sec(x+1)Sec(x-1)/Tan(x)Sec(x-1)
Sec^2(x+1)/Tan(x)Sec(x-1)
1+Tan^2(x+1)/Tan(x)Sec(x-1)
Tan(x)/Sec(x-1)

I feel like crying in joy.. I've been on this freakin problem for like two hours! Now, mind you, I've been totally distracted by the internet.

Frickin abstract trig..

i know where you're coming from. Like the never ending physics problem incorporating every main thing that we had learn.

So there is a rock on a spring on an incline and it shoots and skids and hits this wheel and that whell turns something else, and I can't remember what you were supposed to find in the end but i did it. Granted I miscalculated something in the beginning so my answer was wrong but the Process was right!!!!
