\[\frac{\sin x}{1-\cos x}+\frac{\sin x}{1+\cos x}=2\csc x\]
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Finally a man here who knows how to use parentheses
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what exactally are you looking for?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Verify the identity
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
lol my fault

Okay then, combine the fractions together first
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2 sin(x) = 2 csc(x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I know it's combing denominators first; it is just after that I need.
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
@OG_UnLeAsH: You forgot the denominator
OpenStudy (anonymous):
darn it

So this identity is correct
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
okay @ayolisse can you draw out what you got after combining?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
posted on wrong question whoops
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sinx(1+cosx)+sinx(1-cosx)/(1-cosx)(1+cosx)
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Distribute?

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Add the like terms
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[2sinx+1-cosxsinx/ (1-cosx)(1+cosx)\]
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Where did the 1 come from?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(\sin^2)x+(\cos^2)x=1\]

But there's no sin^2x or cos^2x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then what would you do cause now I am lost
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Continue with \(\dfrac{\sin x+\sin x\cos x+\sin x-\sin x\cos x}{(1-\cos x)(1+\cos x)}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[2sinx+cosxsinx-cosxsinx/(1-cosx)(1+cosx)\]
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
And then?

do the cosxsinx cancel?
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now what about the denominator @kc_kennylau
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Distribute
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[2sinx/1+cosx-cosx-(\cos^2)x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
the cosx cancel right?
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then what do you do after that?
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Do you remember the identity you've said in the wrong time?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the (sin^2)x+(cos^2)x=1 ?

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Yep
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Make cos^2x the subject
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you make the denominator sin^2x?
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay i go the answer
