They are co-functions meaning that 90 - sec x = csc x.

What is tan x csc x?

tan(x)*csc(x) = sec(x)


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


Csc squared divided by cot equals csc x sec. can someone make them equal?

cot(x)=1/tan(x)=1/(sin(x)/cos(x))=cos(x)/sin(x) csc(x)=1/sin(x) sec(x)=1/cos(x) Therefore, (csc(x))2/cot(x)=(1/(sin(x))2)/cot(x)=(1/(sin(x))2)/(cos(x)/sin(x))=(1/(sin(x))2)(sin(x)/cos(x))=(1/sin(x))*(1/cos(x))=csc(x)*sec(x)


Csc x tan x?

If you want to simplify that, it usually helps to express all the trigonometric functions in terms of sines and cosines.


How do you simplify sec x cot x?

sec(x)*cot(x) = (1/cos(x))*(cos(x)/sin(x)) = (1/sin(x)) = csc(x)


If a sound wave is represented by sin x or cos x what is represented by csc x or sec x?

Not much.


What is sec squared x times csc x divided by sec squared x plus csc squared x?

Ah, secant, annoying as always. Why don't we use its definition as 1/cos x and csc as 1/sin x? We will do that Also, please write down the equation, there is at least TWO different equations you are talking about. x^n means x to the power of n 1/(sin x) ^2 is csc squared x, it's actually csc x all squared 1/(cos x) ^2 in the same manner.


How do you simplify csc theta cot theta?

There are 6 basic trig functions.sin(x) = 1/csc(x)cos(x) = 1/sec(x)tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) or 1/cot(x)csc(x) = 1/sin(x)sec(x) = 1/cos(x)cot(x) = cos(x)/sin(x) or 1/tan(x)---- In your problem csc(x)*cot(x) we can simplify csc(x).csc(x) = 1/sin(x)Similarly, cot(x) = cos(x)/sin(x).csc(x)*cot(x) = (1/sin[x])*(cos[x]/sin[x])= cos(x)/sin2(x) = cos(x) * 1/sin2(x)Either of the above answers should work.In general, try converting your trig functions into sine and cosine to make things simpler.


Are shifts sin cos tan equal to csc sec cot respectively?

No, they are the inverse functions, while csc, sec and cot are the reciprocal functions. To illustrate the difference, the inverse of f(x) = x+3 is f-1(x) = x-3 But the reciprocal of f(x) is 1/f(x) = 1/(x+3)


How do you simplify x x x?

sec(x)*cot(x) = (1/cos(x))*(cos(x)/sin(x)) = (1/sin(x)) = csc(x)


What is the derivative of csc x?

The derivative of csc(x) is -cot(x)csc(x).


What is sin cos tan csc sec cot of 135 degrees?

All those can be calculated quickly with your calculator. Just be sure it is in "degrees" mode (not in radians). Also, use the following identities: csc(x) = 1 / sin(x) sec(x) = 1 / cos(x) cot(x) = 1 / tan(x) or the equivalent cos(x) / sin(x)
