1st condition: x + y + z = 4
2nd condition: y = 2x + 1
3rd condition: x + z = - 1 <=> z = - x - 1

Based on the 2nd and 3rd, we replace the 1st as following:

x + 2x + 1 - x - 1 = 4 <=>

2x = 4 <=>

x = 2

Since x = 2, we solve the 2nd as following:

y = 2x + 1 <=>

y = 2*2 + 1 <=>

y = 4 + 1 <=>

y = 5


Same thing for the 3rd:

z = - x - 1 <=>

z = - 2 - 1 <=>

z = - 3

Write each expression in terms of sines and/or cosines and then simplify.
Sedaia [141]
Tan(x)= sin(x)/cos(x), therefore, substitute sin(x)/cos(x) in the expression:
=(cos(x)(sin(x)/cos(x))-1)/cos^2(x)
simplify the 2 cos(x):
=(sin(x)-1)/cos^2(x)
Sin^2(x)+ cos^2(x)=1, sin^2(x)-1=- cos^2(x), substitute in the expression:
= -cos^2(x)/cos^2(x)= -1
