Homework Statement
cos+sintan/sinsec=csc
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
(cos+sin(sin/cos))/(sin/1/cos)
(cos+sin^2sincos)/(sin/cos)
(cos+sin^2sincos)X(cos/sin)
The discussion focuses on solving the equation (cos(x) + sin(x)tan(x))/(sin(x)sec(x)) = csc(x). Participants clarify the correct interpretation of the equation and emphasize the importance of proper punctuation and formatting for mathematical expressions. The conversation highlights the transition from the original equation to a more simplified form, addressing common mistakes in algebraic manipulation. Key insights include the necessity of using the least common multiple (LCM) in the numerator for accurate simplification.
PREREQUISITESStudents studying trigonometry, educators teaching algebraic manipulation, and anyone looking to improve their mathematical communication skills.
