We will work with just the left side: Use the quotient identityto rewrite the first term: Multiply the second fraction by which just equals 1: Multiply the fractions: Use the Pythagorean identity written as to replace the second denominator: Simplify the second term on the bottom: The denominators are the same so we can combine the two fractions by combining the numerators over the common denominator: Simplify the numerator: Use the reciprocal identity Edwin
