Question 482166: How do I prove: sin x/1 - cos x = csc x + cot x
Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

sin x/(1 - cos x)
multiply and divide by (1+cosx)
Sinx(1+cosx)/(1-cos^2x)
(sinx +sinxcosx)/sin^2x
sinx/sin^2x + sinxcosx/Sin^2x
1/sinx + cosx/sinx
cosecx +cotx
Hence proved
