Algebra.Com's Answer #405236 by reviewermath(1029) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use the identity: cotē θ + 1 = cscēθ \n" ); document.write( "The right side becomes \n" ); document.write( "(cscēθ - 1)/(cscēθ) = 1 - (1/cscēθ) \n" ); document.write( "= 1 - sinēθ \n" ); document.write( "= cosē θ \n" ); document.write( " |
