2 cot x plus 1 equals -1?
2 cot(x) + 1 = -1 2 cot(x) = -2 cot(x) = -1 cos(x)/sin(x) = -1 cos(x) = - sin(x) x = 135°, 315°, 495°, ... another one every 180 degrees
How do you prove that (1 plus cotx)2-2cotx 1(1-cos)(1 plus cos)?
Manipulate normally, noting:cot x = cos x / sin xcos² x + sin² x = 1 → sin²x = 1 - cos² xa² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)1 = 1²ab = baa/(bc) = a/b/c(1 + cot x)² - 2 cot x = 1² + 2 cot x + cot² x - 2 cot x= 1 + cot² x= 1 + (cos x / sin x)²= 1 + cos² x / sin² x= 1 + cos² x / (1 - cos² x)= ((1 - cos² x) + cos² x)/(1 - cos² x)= 1/(1² - cos² x)= 1/((1 + cos x)(1 - cos x))= 1/(1 - cos x)/(1 + cos x)QED.
What is the second derivative of ln(tan(x))?
f'(x) = 1/tan(x) * sec^2(x) where * means multiply and ^ means to the power of. = cot(x) * sec^2(x) f''(x) = f'(cot(x)*sec^2(x) + cot(x)*f'[sec^2(x)] = -csc^2(x)*sec^2(x) + cot(x)*2tan(x)sec^2(x) = sec^2(x) [cot(x)-csc^2(x)] +2tan(x)cot(x) = sec^2(x) [cot(x)-csc^2(x)] +2
Cos2x equals 1 minus tan squared x divide by1 plus tan squared x?
The Answer is 1 coz, 1-Tan squarex = Cot square X. So cot square x divided cot square x is equal to 1
What is the derivative of x equals cot2 divided by t?
Assuming you want dx/dt and that the equation is x = cot(2) / t (i.e. cot(2) is a constant) we can use the power rule. First, we rewrite it: cot(2)/t = cot(2) * t-1 thus, by the power rule: dx/dt = (-1) cot(2) * t-1 -1 = - cot(2) * t-2= = -cot(2)/t2
