Answer:

Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation (f °g)(-2) means f(g(-2)). You will substitute -2 into g(x) then substitute the value or equation that results into f(x).

g(-2) = √x - 16 = √-2 - 16

This is not possible because the value of -2 cannot be found in a square root. Square roots do not compute real roots for negative numbers.

Show that √(1-cos A/1+cos A) =cosec A - cot A

Gennadij [26K]

Hi there!

$\sqrt{\frac{1-cosA}{1+cosA}} =$

We can begin by multiplying by its conjugate:

$\sqrt{\frac{1-cosA}{1+cosA}} * \sqrt{\frac{1+cosA}{1+cosA}} = \\\\\sqrt{\frac{(1-cosA)(1 + cosA)}{(1+cosA)(1 + cosA)}} =$

Simplify using the identity:

$1 - cos^2A = sin^2A$

$\sqrt{\frac{(1-cos^2A)}{(1+cosA)^2}} =\\\\\sqrt{\frac{(sin^2A)}{(1+cosA)^2}} =$

Take the square root of the expression:

${\frac{sinA}{1+cosA} =$

Multiply again by the conjugate to get a SINGLE term in the denominator:

${\frac{sinA}{1+cosA} * {\frac{1-cosA}{1-cosA} =\\$

Simplify:

${\frac{sinA(1-cosA)}{1-cos^2A} =$

Use the above trig identity one more:

${\frac{sinA(1-cosA)}{sin^2A} =$

Cancel out sinA:

${\frac{(1-cosA)}{sinA} =$

Split the fraction into two:

${\frac{1}{sinA} - \frac{cosA}{sinA} =$

Recall:

$1/sinA = cscA\\\\cosA/sinA = cotA$

Simplify:

$\frac{1}{sinA} + \frac{cosA}{sinA} = \boxed{cscA - cotA}$
