If Sin equals x and Cos equals y then x squared equals what function of y?

If x = sin θ and y = cos θ then: sin² θ + cos² θ = 1 → x² + y² = 1 → x² = 1 - y²


Finf f prime x and g prime x if f x equals sin of 1 over x and g x equals 1 over sin x?

f(x)= sin(1/x) and g(x)=1/sin(x) [u(v)]' = u'(v) * v', where u and v are functions So f'(x) = sin'(1/x) * (1/x)' = cos(x) * (-1/x2) = -cos(x)/x2 g'(x) = (1/x)' applied to sin(x) * (sin(x))' = -1/(sin2(x)) * cos(x) = -cos(x)/(sin2(x))


How can you prove that 1-2 cosine squared over sine times cosine is equal to tangent minus cotangent?

sin2 + cos2 = 1 So, (1 - 2*cos2)/(sin*cos) = (sin2 + cos2 - 2*cos2)/(sin*cos) = (sin2 - cos2)/(sin*cos) = sin2/(sin*cos) - cos2/(sin*cos) = sin/cos - cos-sin = tan - cot


How do you solve the following identity sec x - cos x equals sin x tan x?

sec x - cos x = (sin x)(tan x) 1/cos x - cos x = Cofunction Identity, sec x = 1/cos x. (1-cos^2 x)/cos x = Subtract the fractions. (sin^2 x)/cos x = Pythagorean Identity, 1-cos^2 x = sin^2 x. sin x (sin x)/(cos x) = Factor out sin x. (sin x)(tan x) = (sin x)(tan x) Cofunction Identity, (sin x)/(cos x) = tan x.


H ow do you verify that csc theta tan theta sec theta?

csc[]tan[] = sec[]. L: Change csc[] into one over sin[]. Change tan[] into sin[] over cos[]. R: Change sec[] into one over cos[]. 1/sin[] times sin[]/cos[] = 1/cos[]. L: To multiply 2 fractions, multiply the numerators, and multiply the denominators, and put the numerators' product over the denominators' product. R: Nothing more to do. sin[]/sin[]cos[] = 1/cos[]. L: You have a sin[] on both top and bottom. Cross them off to get a one on the top. 1/cos[] = 1/cos[]. Done. [] is theta. L is the left side of the equation. R is the right side.

Verify that sin minus cos plus 1 divided by sin plus cos subtract 1 equals sin plus 1 divided by cos?

[sin - cos + 1]/[sin + cos - 1] = [sin + 1]/cosiff [sin - cos + 1]*cos = [sin + 1]*[sin + cos - 1]iff sin*cos - cos^2 + cos = sin^2 + sin*cos - sin + sin + cos - 1iff -cos^2 = sin^2 - 11 = sin^2 + cos^2, which is true,


What is the solution to sec plus tan equals cos over 1 plus sin?

sec + tan = cos /(1 + sin) sec and tan are defined so cos is non-zero. 1/cos + sin/cos = cos/(1 + sin) (1 + sin)/cos = cos/(1 + sin) cross-multiplying, (1 + sin)2 = cos2 (1 + sin)2 = 1 - sin2 1 + 2sin + sin2 = 1 - sin2 2sin2 + 2sin = 0 sin2 + sin = 0 sin(sin + 1) = 0 so sin = 0 or sin = -1 But sin = -1 implies that cos = 0 and cos is non-zero. Therefore sin = 0 or the solutions are k*pi radians where k is an integer.


If Sin equals x and Cos equals y then x squared equals what function of y?

If x = sin θ and y = cos θ then: sin² θ + cos² θ = 1 → x² + y² = 1 → x² = 1 - y²

How do you prove that the sin over one minus the cosine minus one plus the cosine over the sine equals zero?

Multiply both sides by sin(1-cos) and you lose the denominators and get (sin squared) minus 1+cos times 1-cos. Then multiply out (i.e. expand) 1+cos times 1-cos, which will of course give the difference of two squares: 1 - (cos squared). (because the cross terms cancel out.) (This is diff of 2 squares because 1 is the square of 1.) And so you get (sin squared) - (1 - (cos squared)) = (sin squared) + (cos squared) - 1. Then from basic trig we know that (sin squared) + (cos squared) = 1, so this is 0.


What is the solution to cos equals sec-sintan?

I'm not really sure what you mean by "the solution", but that equation cos = sec - sintan does simplify down to sin^2 + cos^2 = 1 which so happens to be an identity. I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but if it is, here are the steps in simplifying it. 1. Convert sec to 1/cos 2. Convert tan into sin/cos and multiply it by sin sintan = sin(sin/cos) = (sin^2)/cos You then have cos = 1/cos - (sin^2/cos) 3. Multiply everything by cos cos^2 = 1 - sin^2 4. And finally, send the sin^2 over to the left side by adding it (since it is being subracted on the right) You should see this sin^2 + cos^2 = 1 which is an identity.
