You use the identity sin2x + cos2x = 1 (to simplify the expression in parentheses), and convert all functions to sines and cosines.

sec x tan x (1 - sin2x)

= (1/cos x) (sin x / cos x) (cos2x)

= (sin x / cos2x) cos2x

= sin x

What is X squared plus 6x minus 55?

Without knowing what "x" is, we cannot say what the answer will be. And without knowing the answer, we cannot solve for "x". Set x at zero, for example. Zero squared is zero, plus 6 time zero which is zero, minus 55. Your answer is then -55. Set x at one, for example. One squared is one, plus 6 times 1 which is six, minus 55. Your answer is then -48. Etc.


What is 2x squared minus x squared?

The expression 2x squared minus x squared simplifies to x squared. This is because when subtracting like terms, you subtract the coefficients while keeping the variable and its exponent the same. In this case, 2x squared minus x squared leaves you with just x squared.
