MEDALS ALL AROUND! PLEASE SEE MY PROBLEM..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please prove that (cotx-cscx)(cosx+1)=-sinx

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

so lets do it together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

expand the brackets.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahm.. first the (cotx-cscx)?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

ya

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

im just being lazy so you should get cot(x) + cot(x)cos(x) - csc(x) - csx(x)cos(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cot x (cot x -csc x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooops im wrong.

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

no expand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so when i expand it, i will expand it all?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not just the (cotx-cscx) ?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

nope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thank you, then what will i do next?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

so u get this cot(x) + cot(x)cos(x) - csc(x) - csx(x)cos(x)

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

combine the like terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would be cot(x)+cot(x)cos(x)+cos(x)-csc(x)-csc(x) ??

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

u didnt expand it right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorry :( wait ill try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cot2x-cos2x+cscx^2 ??
