trig identity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large \frac{ 1+2sinxcosx }{ \cos^2x-\sin^2x }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which part did you get stuck at

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that equals \[\large\frac{ cosx+sinx }{ cosx-sinx }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can't seem to make them equal :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 + 2sinx cosx = sin²x + 2sinxcosx + cos²x = ( sinx + cosx)²

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos²x - sin²x = ( cosx - sinx ) ( cosx + sinx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now simplify upper and lower => the left side :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1353299245697:dw| this right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you simplify them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup, got it cosx+sinx/cosx-sinx
