Prove the identity...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \sin x \tan x }{ 1-\cos x }= 1 + \frac{ 1 }{ \cos x }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have got up to (1-c^2)/(c(1-c))

hartnn (hartnn):

now for 1-c^2 use \(a^2-b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So (1-c)(1+c)/c(1-c)

hartnn (hartnn):

what gets cancelled out ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1-c) Which leads to (1+c)/(c)

hartnn (hartnn):

now separate th denominator...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not so sure how to do that

hartnn (hartnn):

ok, \(\huge \dfrac{a+b}{c}=\dfrac{a}{c}+\dfrac{b}{c}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/c + c/c = 1/c + 1 Thanks once again for your help!

hartnn (hartnn):

you're welcome ^_^
