Can someone help me with trig homework, will fan and medal

Question

anonymous · Answer

$$(\sin \theta -\cos \theta +1)/\sin \theta+\cos \theta -1) = \sin \theta +1/\cos \theta$$

anonymous · Answer

I need to show how the left hand side is equal to the right hand side using trig identities

astrophysics · Answer

Multiply the left side by cos theta

anonymous · Answer

Are you getting that from the sin+1/cos?

astrophysics · Answer

No we're working with the left side

anonymous · Answer

Why would I take out cos?

astrophysics · Answer

You can how ever after multiply the right side by sintheta+cos theta-1

astrophysics · Answer

What?

astrophysics · Answer

Maybe you should show me your work, then we can see what you're thinking

anonymous · Answer

I'm not allowed to take anything from the right side to help, its just for checking. All I have is the equation written down as it is

astrophysics · Answer

I'm not doing anything on the right side, all I said was multiply the left side by cos theta

anonymous · Answer

Where are you getting the cos theta from?

astrophysics · Answer

You have to deal with trig identities separately, I just assume we need it to simplify the right side.

astrophysics · Answer

sorry left side*

astrophysics · Answer

Multiply by cos theta and expand
