Homework Statement
Cot (a- B) = (cot a cot b + 1) / cot B - cot a
So.. Could I use tan (a-B) ? I couldn't find any special formulas for cot's.
Solve Cot (a- B) = (cot a cot b + 1) / cot B - cot a

Sure, try it. cot(A-b)=1/tan(A-b). Use your identity on the tan(A-b) part and try and show it reduces to the right side of the identity.
