the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution


we have

sin x/ (1-cos x)


we know that

sin²x+cos²x=1-----------> sin²x=1-cos²x

and

difference of squares

(a+b)*(a-b)=a²-b²

so

The idea is to make the difference of squares (1-cos²x)in denominator.so

multiply the expression by (1+cos x)/(1+cos x)

[sin x/ (1-cos x)]*[(1+cos x)/(1+cos x)]=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ (1-cos x)/(1+cos x)]

=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ (1-cos²x)]

=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ sin²x]

=(1+cos x)/sin x

=(1/sin x)+(cos x/sin x)

=csc x+cot x


therefore


the answer is

the first step is multiply the expression by (1+cos x)/(1+cos x)

The waiting time to a roller coaster is 20 minutes when 150 people are in line. How long is the waiting time when 240 people are
scoray [572]
So, the first thing you want to find out is how many seconds each person adds to the wait time. Find out how many seconds are in 20 minutes.. 20*60=120. 120/150=0.8 seconds. Each person adds 0.8 seconds to the wait time. Now, multiply that by 240.. 240*0.8=192 seconds. Lastly, find out how many minutes 192 seconds is... 192/60=32 minutes.
I hope I did that right! And if I did, I hope that helped!

20 - (3 2/3 + 2 1/4 + 2 1/3) = ?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

20-5 11/12= 9 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

we do (3 2/3 + 2 1/4+ 2 1/3 )which is

           3 8/12.    2 3/12    2 4/12 (common denominator)

then add 3 8/12 and 2 3/12 and 2 1/3 to get 10 1/12 then we get 20- 10 1/12 to get a final answer of 9 11/12
