Homework Statement
Verify the identity:
csc(x) + sec(x) = cot(x) + tan(x)
sin(x) + cos(x)
Homework Equations
sin^2 + cos^2 = 1
tan^2 + 1 = sec^2
1 + cot^2 = csc^2
The Attempt at a Solution
First i changed everything to sin and cos to try and make it more clear. Let me know if I should bypass this:
1/sin(x) + 1/cos(x) = cot(x) + tan(x)
sin(x) + cos(x)
I'm not really sure where to go from here...should i try to make a common denominator?
