Though many of these theories represent justified claims, an absolute truth of knowledge has still not been resolved. Therefore in reality is in fact unknown and will continue to remain unknown as long as the question of faith still lingers.

An identity question is where you have an equation and you try to manipulate each side individually without touching the other side and get them to be equal. We start off with something like sin squared theta over cos theta plus cos and the objective here is to prove that it is identical to sec theta. At first looks there is no connection but by using creative methods and hours of work eventually we figure out the way to do it. Sinē? + Cos ? | Sec ? Cos ? | First I would make everything over Cos ?
