prove (1-cos(x))/(1/(cos(x))-1)=cos(x)

prove

\frac{1 - cos ( x )}{\frac{1}{c o s ( x )} - 1} = cos (x)

True

Solution steps

\frac{1 - cos ( x )}{\frac{1}{c o s ( x )} - 1} = cos (x)

Manipulating left side

\frac{1 - cos ( x )}{\frac{1}{c o s ( x )} - 1}

Simplify

\frac{1 - cos ( x )}{- 1 + \frac{1}{c o s ( x )}} : cos (x)

\frac{1 - cos ( x )}{- 1 + \frac{1}{c o s ( x )}}

Join

- 1 + \frac{1}{cos ( x )} : \frac{- cos ( x ) + 1}{cos ( x )}

- 1 + \frac{1}{cos ( x )}

Convert element to fraction:

1 = \frac{1 cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - \frac{1 \cdot cos ( x )}{cos ( x )} + \frac{1}{cos ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{- 1 \cdot cos ( x ) + 1}{cos ( x )}

Multiply:

1 \cdot cos (x) = cos (x)

= \frac{- cos ( x ) + 1}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{1 - cos ( x )}{\frac{- c o s ( x ) + 1}{c o s ( x )}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{\frac{b}{c}} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b}

= \frac{( 1 - cos ( x ) ) cos ( x )}{- cos ( x ) + 1}

Cancel the common factor:

1 - cos (x)

= cos (x)

= cos (x)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True

sin (π - 0) = sin (0)

cos^{2} (\frac{0}{2}) = sec (0)

csc^{2} (x) + 1 = cot^{2} (x) + 2

sin^{2} (a) = 1 - cos^{2} (a)

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