Question

cos^2xcscx-cscx=___x
fill in the blank

Answer 1

I would bring out the common term of csc x
do you know what cos^2x -1 equals? or is equivalent too?

Answer 2

no....

Answer 3

sin^2x + cos^2x = 1
so therefore cos^2x - 1 = sin^2x

Answer 4

cscx = 1/sinx, right?
so now you can simplify and have your answer - hint it will only have 1 term

Answer 5

wait what

Answer 6

I'm very confused

Answer 7

ok..let me show you the steps

Answer 8

thank you :)

Answer 9

cscx ( cos^2x -1) =
cscx (sin^2x) =
1/sinx (sin^2x) =
sinx

Answer 10

okay, so then my answer would be sinx?

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

Okay, yeah it makes a lot more sense to see the steps, thank you :)

Answer 13

it told me that it was -sin??
