You can also use prove identities to prove other identities.

An identity is true for all values of the identity.

Although it is true that the graph of the left side of the identity must be the same as the graph of the right side of the identity, just looking won't be good enough (because you will be looking at only a restricted portion of the graph and graphs might look identical at one scale but might look different at a smaller scale.
