Question

express as a single trig ratio
sinx +cotx cosx

Answer 1

sinx+cos^2(x) /sinx
sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) /sinx
1/sinx
cosecx

Answer 2

im a little confused on how you get to sin^2(x) + cos^2(x)/sinx
I dont understand how sin^2(x) is made in the process

Answer 3

since sinx is in denominator and when taking lcm, multiplied by sinx in the numerator u get it

Answer 4

so then wouldnt that step be sin^2(x) +cos^2(x) and not sin^2(x) +cos^2(x)/sinx because you elimanted the divide by sinx?

Answer 5

no..sinx in denominator is still there
