prove cot(x)sin(x)sec(x)=1

prove

cot (x) sin (x) sec (x) = 1

True

Solution steps

cot (x) sin (x) sec (x) = 1

Manipulating left side

cot (x) sin (x) sec (x)

Express with sin, cos

cot (x) sec (x) sin (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

cot (x) = \frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )}

= \frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} sec (x) sin (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

sec (x) = \frac{1}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} \cdot \frac{1}{cos ( x )} sin (x)

\frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} \cdot \frac{1}{cos ( x )} sin (x) = 1

\frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} \cdot \frac{1}{cos ( x )} sin (x)

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} \cdot \frac{d}{e} = \frac{a \cdot b \cdot d}{c \cdot e}

= \frac{cos ( x ) \cdot 1 \cdot sin ( x )}{sin ( x ) cos ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (x)

= \frac{1 \cdot sin ( x )}{sin ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

sin (x)

= 1

= 1

= 1

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
