Question

Someone please help me!!
secxcscx=2cscx

Answer 1

recheck the problem, please, I don't think you post the right one
is it sec (x) * csc (x) = 2 csc (x)?

Answer 2

@yeshapatel97 knock, knock

Answer 3

yeah it's sec(x)*csc(x)=2 csc(x)

Answer 4

so, the question is solve for x?

Answer 5

or prove?

Answer 6

it's to solve for x

Answer 7

lets start from the left and work towards the right...
answer these:
secx = ??
cscx = ??

Answer 8

ah ... sorry, I misunderstood. think it is proving

Answer 9

ok, let dpalnc guides you,

Answer 10

@dpaInc there aren't any values for cscx or secx

Answer 11

1/sinx=cscx 1/cosx=secx

Answer 12

yeah that makes sense

Answer 13

okay that makes sense

Answer 14

hang on...

Answer 15

no here's an attachment of the problem

Answer 16

because this is not an identity, the instruction must be to solve the equation, is that right?

Answer 17

yeah i know it's not an identity, but yeah you have to solve for x

Answer 18

i was under the impression that we needed to prove that statement... sorry...

Answer 19

it's alright...

Answer 20

ok.. let's see if we solve the equation...

Answer 21

bring that right side over to the left side... what u got as a result???

Answer 22

sec(X)csc(x)-2csc(x)=0

Answer 23

ok.. now factor cscx from that left side... what u got now???

Answer 24

cscx(secx-cscx)=0

Answer 25

what happened to te "2" ??

Answer 26

try factoring again...

Answer 27

cscx(secx-2)

Answer 28

=0

Answer 29

ok.. thats better... now using the zero product property:

cscx = 0 OR secx - 2 = 0

ok so far???

Answer 30

does the first one have a solution???

Answer 31

oh oky i know what to do from here

Answer 32

ok...:)

Answer 33

no the first one doesnt

Answer 34

thank you :)

Answer 35

correct.. that first one does not have a solution...
so your solutions must come from secx - 2 = 0,

Answer 36

yw....:)
