anonymous · Answer

THERE WE GO!!!!

sweetburger · Answer

trig is bad enough i dont want to be guessing in how to manipulate the function

anonymous · Answer

in option C, is it cosec x-cos x in the denominator or cosec x- cot x? review please

anonymous · Answer

csc-cosx no cot

anonymous · Answer

then i guess it cannot be simplified further

anonymous · Answer
