SOLUTION: Hi, I need to rewrite this expression in terms of tanx: cscx/cotx - cotx/1+cscx
So far I've gotten to (1/sinx)/(1/tanx) - (1/tanx)/(1+1/sinx)
Any help is much appreciated

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi, I need to rewrite this expression in terms of tanx: cscx/cotx - cotx/1+cscx
So far I've gotten to (1/sinx)/(1/tanx) - (1/tanx)/(1+1/sinx)
-----------
= tan/sin - (1/tan)/((sin + 1)/sin)
= tan/sin - sin/(tan*(sin+1))
------------
sin = ątan/sqrt(1+tan^2)
----
--> 1/sqrt(1+tan^2) - sqrt(1+tan^2)/(1 + tan/sqrt(1 + tan^2))
-----------------
IDK what the point is.
