Homework Help: Trigonometry

What is cos (pi/2 - x) secx using the fundamental identities to simplify the expression. I think I have the right answer but I want to check to make sure.

Well, cos (pi/2 - x) is something you should've seen already. It's just another name for sin(x). Also, sec(x) is the same as 1/cos(x). Can you take it from here?
