I don't think you meant "cofunction" since the cofunction of the
cosecant is the secant. There are no formulas directly connecting
the secant to the cosecant, so I think you mean "reciprocal", which
is the sine, not the "cofunction". So I'll do it using the reciprocal,
since I know of no way to simplify the expression using the secant.
