will give medal and fan Secx+tanx/secx +tanx-cosx

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well use what you know sec = 1/cos tan = sin/cos so the problem is \[\frac{1}{\cos(x)} + \frac{\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}}{\frac{1}{\cos(x)}} + \frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} - \cos(x)\] a lot of common denominators here... but start by simplifying the fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would i simplfy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plz help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) } }{ \frac{ 1 }{ \cos(x) } }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You need to simplify that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sinx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct now write out you problem again and determine a common denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cosx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it cos x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is that my answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no..rewrite the equation with the common denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\cos /\sin /\cos/1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1+sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)-cos(x^2) all over cos(x)...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now i just simplfy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1+sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)-cos(x^2) this is all you have to simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sin2(x)+sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Very good but you can break out the sin(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sin(x)(sin(x)+cos(x)+1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good job
