With a scientific calculator. The actual calculation is somewhat complicated, so you wouldn't normally want to do it yourself. However, if you really want to know it, the formula is the following infinite series:
sin(x) = x - x3/3! + x5/5! - x7/7! + x9/9! ...
The angle x has to be in radians (to convert degrees to radians, multiply by pi/180), and the exclamation is the factorial function, for example, 5! = 1x2x3x4x5.
You add as many terms as required to get the desired accuracy.

sin(x)-cos(x) = (1)sin(x)+(-1)cos(x) so the range is sqrt((1)^2+(-1)^2)=1 and the domain is R <><><><><> The domain of sin x - cos x is [-infinity, +infinity]. The range of sin x - cos x is [-1.414, +1.414].
(tan x - sin x)/(tan x sin x) = (tan x sin x)/(tan x + sin x)[sin x/cos x) - sin x]/[(sin x/cos x)sin x] =? [(sin x/cos x)sin x]/[sin x/cos x) + sin x][(sin x - sin x cos x)/cos x]/(sin2 x/cos x) =? (sin2 x/cos x)/[(sin x + sin x cos x)/cos x)(sin x - sin x cos x)/sin2 x =? sin2 x/(sin x + sin x cos x)[sin x(1 - cos x)]/sin2 x =? sin2 x/[sin x(1 + cos x)(1 - cos x)/sin x =? sin x/(1 + cos x)(1 - cos x)/sin x =?

[(sin x)(1 - cos x)]/sin2 x(1 - cos x)/sin x = (1 - cos x)/sin x True
There will be 4 possible solutions if all you are looking for is the angles, so you will need to find out which quadrant your angle is in.2sin²x = sin x **Subtract sin x from both sides.2sin²x - sin x = 0 **Then factor out sin x.sin x(2sin x - 1) = 0 **Set each equal to zero. (AB=0 is the same as A=0 OR B=0).sin x = 0 or 2sin x - 1 = 0 to 2sin x = 1 to sin x = 1/2At this point all that is left to do is find out where sin x = 0 or 1/2, which is 0, 180 for sin x = 0 or 30, 150 for sin x = 1/2.
cos2 x /(1 - sin x)= (1 - sin2 x )/(1 - sin x)= (1 + sin x)(1 - sin x)/(1 - sin x)= 1 + sin x
