prove cosx + 1/sin^3 = cscx/1-cosx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it jus 1/sin^3 or is it 1/sin^3x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/sin^3x

Directrix (directrix):

@hammytams I think the problem should have been posted to read as follows: (cos(x) + 1)/(sin^3(x)) = csc(x)/(1-cos(x))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using the R.H.S cscx/1- cosx multiply the mumerator and denominator by 1 +(cosx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since cosecx is equal to 1/sinx (1+cosx/sin^2x) x (1/sinx) = 1+cosx/sin^3x which is = L.H.S hence proven

Directrix (directrix):

@hammytams What does R.H.S mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right hand side sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

of the equation
