Answer:

see derivation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Show that:

( sec(t) - cosec(t) ) ( 1 + tan(t) + cot(t) ) =

sec(t) tan(t) - cosec(t) cot(t)

Some trigonometric definitions used:

tan(t) = sin(t)/cos(t)

cot(t) = cos(t)/sin(t)

sec(t) = 1/cos(t)

csc(t) = 1/sin(t)

some trigonometric identities used:

sin^2(t) + cos^2(t) = 1 ......................(1)

rewrite left-hand side in terms of sine and cosine

(1/cos(t) - 1/sin(t) ) ( 1 + sin(t)/cos(t) + cos(t)/sin(t) )

Simplify using common denominator sin(t)cos(t)

= ( (sin(t) - cos(t))/(sin(t)*cos(t)) ) * ( ( sin(t)cos(t) + sin^2(t) + cos^2(t)) / ( sin(t)cos(t) ) )

= ( sin(t) -cos(t) ) * (1 + sin(t)cos(t) ) / ( sin^2(t) cos^2(t) )   ...... using (1)

Expand by multiplication

= ( sin(t) -cos(t) + sin^2(t)cos(t) - sin(t)cos^2(t) ) / ( sin^2(t) cos^2(t) )

Rearrange by factoring out sin(t) and cos(t) in numerator

= ( sin(t) (1-cos^2(t) - cos(t)(1-sin^2(t) )  / ( sin^2(t) cos^2(t) )

= ( sin^3(t) - cos^3(t) ) /( sin^2(t) cos^2(t) )   .........................using (1)

Cancel common factors

= sin(t)/(cos^2(t)) - cos(t)/(sin^2(t))

Rewrite using trigonometric definitions

= sec(t)tan(t) - csc(t)cot(t)   as in Right-Hand Side

Can someone help me with this question?
arlik [135]

Try this solution:

1. m∠A=m∠L; m∠B=m∠M and m∠C=m∠N;

2. m∠B=m∠M=35° and m∠C=m∠N=95°;

3. m∠A=m∠L=180°-(m∠B+m∠C)=180-35-95=50°

answer: 50°

ANTONII [103]
Hi,

- 0.4  + 1.5(3.1) \\  - 0.4 + 1.5 \times 3.1 \\  - 0.4 + 4.65  = 4.25


Hope this helps.
