$\"sec%28beta%29%2Acot%28beta%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "When you are not sure how to simplify Trig expressions, try changing the functions into sin's and/or cos's:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2Fcos%28beta%29%29%2A%28cos%28beta%29%2Fsin%28beta%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Now we can see that the cos's will cancel:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2Fcross%28cos%28beta%29%29%29%2A%28cross%28cos%28beta%29%29%2Fsin%28beta%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "leaving:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2Fsin%28beta%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "which is simply
