Ans: x can take any value because the expression is an identity.
Proof:
LHS = +sin%28x%29+%2B+cos%28x%29cot%28x%29+
= +sin%28x%29+%2B+cos%28x%29cos%28x%29%2Fsin%28x%29+
= +sin%28x%29+%2B+%28cos%28x%29%29%5E2+%2Fsin%28x%29+
= +%28%28sin%28x%29%29%5E2+%2B+%28cos%28x%29%29%5E2%29%2Fsin%28x%29+
= +1%2Fsin%28x%29+
= RHS
