Answer:

cot . (x- π/2)= - tanx

Step-by-step explanation:

cot . (x- π/2)= - tanx

cot .x - cot π/2= - tanx

cot π/2= 1/tanπ/2

But tan π/2= ∞

cot π/2 = 1/∞= 0

cotx - 0= - tanx

cot x = - tanx

cosx/sinx= - sinx/cosx             Putting values of cot and tan

cosx/ sinx ( sinx/cos x) = -sinx/cos x  (sinx/cos x )  

Multiplying both sides with  sinx/cos x    

1= - sin²x/cos²x

cos²x= - sin²x                 as cosx = -sinx

What is 5d=470 and what is 8a=47
Igoryamba
5d=470:

in this case we have to divide both sides by 5:

d=94

8a=47:

in this case we have to divide both sides by 8:

a=5.875

as a general rule, if you want to find out a value of a in
ab=c

you have to divide both sides of the equation by b (if it's not zero); then you will have left:

a=c/b

and if you calculate c/b, this will give you the answer
