You can put this solution on YOUR website!
sqrt%281-cosx%29%2Fsqrt%281%2Bcosx%29=+%281-+cosx%29%2F+Abs%28sinx%29
Square both sides
(1-cos)/(1+cos) = (1-cos)^2/sin^2
Divide by (1-cos
1/(1+cos) = (1-cos)/sin^2
sin^2/(1+cos) = 1-cos
sin^2 = 1 - cos^2
There's no solution, it's an identity.
It's equal for any value of x.
