Trig help (Problems already solved)?
The calculation for the problems are already done but I have to list a reason or what is being done in each step. "Each = and newline made" means a place I have to write what is being done in the calculation.
- (secx + sinx)cotx = cscx + cosx
=(secx + sinx)cotx = cscx + cosx
=(1 / sinx) + cosx
=cscx + cosx
- cosx + tanx sinx = secx
=cosx + tanx sinx = cosx + (sinx / cosx)sinx
=cosx + (sin^2x / cosx) = (1 / cosx)(cos^2x + sin^2x)
=1 / cosx
=secx
- cscx - cosx cotx = sinx
=cscx - cosx cotx = (1 / sinx) - cosx(cosx / sinx)
=(1 / sinx) - (cos^2x / sinx)
=(1 - cos^2x) / sinx
=sin^2x / sinx = sinx
- (cosx / (1 + cosx)) + (cosx / (1 - cosx)) = 2cotx cscx
=(cosx / (1 + cosx)) + (cosx / (1 - cosx)) = ((cosx (1 - cosx) + cosx (1 + cosx))) / (1 + cosx)(1 - cosx)
=(cosx - cos^2x + cosx + cos^2x) / (1 - cos^2x)
=2cosx / sin^2x
=2(cosx / sinx)(1 / sinx) = 2cotx cscx
Thank you to whoever decides to help me with explaining what is happening on each line.
