Answer:

\displaystyle \frac{\tan\theta}{\sec\theta - \cos\theta} = \frac{1}{\sin\theta} = \csc\theta

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression:

\displaystyle \frac{\tan\theta}{\sec\theta - \cos\theta}

And we want to write the expression in terms of sine and cosine and simplify.

Thus, let tanθ = sinθ / cosθ and secθ = 1 / cosθ. Substitute:

=\displaystyle \frac{\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}}{\dfrac{1}{\cos\theta}-\cos\theta}

Multiply both layers by cosθ:

=\displaystyle \frac{\left(\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\right)\cdot \cos\theta}{\left(\dfrac{1}{\cos\theta}-\cos\theta\right)\cdot \cos\theta}

Distribute:

\displaystyle =\frac{\sin\theta}{1-\cos^2\theta}

Recall from the Pythagorean Theorem that sin²θ + cos²θ = 1. Hence, 1 - cos²θ = sin²θ. Substitute and simplify:

\displaystyle =\frac{\sin\theta}{\sin^2\theta} \\ \\ =\frac{1}{\sin\theta}

We can convert this to cosecant if we wish.

Use the data set shown below to complete the sentence 3,3,4,5,5,9 the mean the median
lorasvet [3.4K]

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

                  Hello!

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

❖ Mean = 4.8  Median = 4.5

The mean is the average. To find the mean add up all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers:

3 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 9 = 29

29 ÷ 6 = 4.8

To find the mean, keep crossing out numbers until you are left with one number (for an odd amount of numbers). When you have an even amount of numbers, keep crossing out until you are left with 2 numbers. Add those 2 numbers and then divide:

4 + 5 = 9

9 ÷ 2 = 4.5

The length of a rectangle is 3 m longer then it’s width the area of the rectangle is 154 m^2 what is the width of the rectangle
Alenkasestr [34]
The width is 11.

You can get this by setting up an equation that says:

x (x - 3) = 154

Then distribute and use the quadratic equation to solve.
