prove cos^2(x)+2sin(x)=2

prove

cos^{2} (x) + 2 sin (x) = 2

False

Solution steps

cos^{2} (x) + 2 sin (x) = 2

Show that the two sides are not equal

For

cos^{2} (x) + 2 sin (x) = 2

plug in

x = 0

cos^{2} (0) + 2 sin (0) = 1

cos^{2} (0) + 2 sin (0)

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (0) = 1

cos (0)

cos (x)

= 1

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (0) = 0

= 0

= 1^{2} + 2 \cdot 0

Simplify

= 1

The two sides are not equal

\Rightarrow False

2 sin^{2} (\frac{x}{2}) tan (x) = tan (x) - sin (x)

sin (27 0^{\circ} + x) = - cos (x)

sec^{2} (x) + csc^{2} (x) = (csc (x) sec (x))^{2}

cot^{2} (x) = csc^{2} (x)

2 cot (θ) cot (2 θ) = cot^{2} (- 1)
