use basic identites to simply expression cot usinu

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

plz explain detail

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use addition

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

the answer is cos u

OpenStudy (turingtest):

are you telling me \[\sin u \cos u=\cos u\]because that is not true

OpenStudy (turingtest):

how basic do these identities have to be? can we use \[\sin a \cos b={1\over2}[\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)]\]?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

cot is cos/sin the two sin will be cancelled and the answer is cosu

OpenStudy (turingtest):

oh I thought it was cos, not cot, my bad... you seem to have the answer then, right?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

can u plz answer onther one i dont know that

OpenStudy (turingtest):

sure

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

1-cos2 x/sin x

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[{1-\cos^2x \over \sin x}\]right?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

ya

OpenStudy (turingtest):

start with the most basic identity\[\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\]solve this for \[1-\cos^2x=?\]and you should get you answer.

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

is that sin x

OpenStudy (turingtest):

yup yup!

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

thanks

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

whan i cut sin2 ans sin i got 1-sinx

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

so the answer is 1- sinx or sinx

OpenStudy (turingtest):

ok, let's see what happened...

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1 \to \sin^2x=1-\cos^2x\]plugging this into your formula gives\[{1-\cos^2x\over \sin x}={\sin^2x \over \sin x}=\sin x\]not sure what you did there...

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

i got u thx
