sin2x / (1-cos x) = (1-cos2x) / (1-cos x) = (1-cos x)(1+cos x) / (1-cos x) = (1+cos x)

sin2x=1-cos2x as sin2x+cos2x=1

1-cos2x = (1-cos x)(1+cos x) as a2-b2=(a-b)(a+b)

Cosx - sinx?

Given: = cosx - sinxJust isolate sx= sx(co-in)


How do you Prove sin x times sec x equals tan x?

sinx*secx ( secx= 1/cos ) sinx*(1/cosx) sinx/cosx=tanx tanx=tanx


Secx tanx - cosx cotx equals sinx?

I suggest you convert everything to sines and cosines, and then try to simplify. For example, sec x = 1 / cos x, tan x = sin x / cos x, etc. Then - depending on the problem requirements - you either verify whether they are always equal or not, or determine for what values of x they are equal.


Sin2x plus cosx equals 0?

sin 2x + cos x = 0 (substitute 2sin x cos x for sin 2x)2sin x cos x + cos x = 0 (divide by cos x each term to both sides)2sin x + 1 = 0 (subtract 1 to both sides)2sin x = -1 (divide by 2 to both sides)sin x = -1/2Because the period of the sine function is 360⁰, first find all solutions in [0, 360⁰].Because sin 30⁰ = 1/2 , the solutions of sin x = -1/2 in [0, 360] arex = 180⁰ + 30⁰ = 210⁰ (the sine is negative in the third quadrant)x = 360⁰ - 30⁰ = 330⁰ (the sine is negative in the fourth quadrant)Thus, the solutions of the equation are given byx = 210⁰ + 360⁰n and x = 330⁰ + 360⁰n, where n is any integer.


Verify that Cos theta cot theta plus sin theta equals csc theta?

It's easiest to show all of the work (explanations/identities), and x represents theta. cosxcotx + sinx = cscx cosx times cosx/sinx + sinx = csc x (Quotient Identity) cosx2 /sinx + sinx = csc x (multiplied) 1-sinx2/sinx + sinx = csc x (Pythagorean Identity) 1/sinx - sinx2/sinx + sinx = csc x (seperate fraction) 1/sinx -sinx + sinx = csc x (canceled) 1/sinx = csc x (cancelled) csc x =csc x (Reciprocal Identity)

How do you simplify cosx plus sinx tanx?

to simplify Cosx=Sinx Tanx you should remember your fundamental and pythagorean identities.. Cosx + Sinx Tanx Cosx + Sinx (Sinx/Cosx) <---------- From Tanx= Sinx/Cosx Cosx + Sin2x/ Cos x <------------- do the LCD Cosx (Cosx/Cosx) + Sin2x/Cosx (Cos2x+Sin2x)/Cosx 1/Cosx <--------- From Sin2x + Cos2x =1 or Secx <-------- answer Comment if you have questions...:))

How do you solve 1 minus cosx divided by sinx plus sinx divided by 1 minus cosx to get 2cscx?

(1-cosx)/sinx + sinx/(1- cosx) = [(1 - cosx)*(1 - cosx) + sinx*sinx]/[sinx*(1-cosx)] = [1 - 2cosx + cos2x + sin2x]/[sinx*(1-cosx)] = [2 - 2cosx]/[sinx*(1-cosx)] = [2*(1-cosx)]/[sinx*(1-cosx)] = 2/sinx = 2cosecx


What value is equivalent to 1 - cosx squared?

Can you Show 1 over sinx cosx - cosx over sinx equals tanx?

From the Pythagorean identity, sin2x = 1-cos2x. LHS = 1/(sinx cosx) - cosx/sinx LHS = 1/(sinx cosx) - (cosx/sinx)(cosx/cosx) LHS = 1/(sinx cosx) - cos2x/(sinx cosx) LHS = (1- cos2x)/(sinx cosx) LHS = sin2x /(sinx cosx) [from Pythagorean identity] LHS = sin2x /(sinx cosx) LHS = sinx/cosx LHS = tanx [by definition] RHS = tanx LHS = RHS and so the identity is proven. Q.E.D.
