Exsecant: History & Applications

The external secant function (abbreviated exsecant, symbolized exsec) is a trigonometric function defined in terms of the secant function: exsec ⁡ θ = sec ⁡ θ − 1 = 1 cos ⁡ θ − 1. {\displaystyle \operatorname {exsec} \theta =\sec \theta -1={\frac {1}{\cos \theta }}-1.}
