$\"1%2Bcot%28theta%29%2Fcsc%28theta%29+=+sin%28theta%29+%2B+cos%28theta%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "There is something wrong here because the left side is NOT equal to the right side.

\n" ); document.write( "Please correct and re-post. If the problem is supposed to be:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2Bcot%28theta%29%29%2Fcsc%28theta%29+=+sin%28theta%29+%2B+cos%28theta%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "then the error is that there were no parentheses to indicate that both the 1 and the cot were part of the same numerator. Always use parentheses around multiple-term numerators (or denominators):
\n" ); document.write( "(1+cot(theta))/csc(theta) = sin(theta) + cos(theta)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
