Periodicity of

\frac{tan ( x ) - tan ^{2} ( x )}{2 sin ( x ) - 1}

is composed of the following functions and periods:

tan (x)

with periodicity of

π

The compound periodicity is:

= 2 π

Express with sin, cos

\frac{tan ( x ) - tan ^{2} ( x )}{2 sin ( x ) - 1} < 0

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

\frac{\frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} - ( \frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} ) ^{2}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1} < 0

\frac{\frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} - ( \frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} ) ^{2}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1} < 0

Simplify

\frac{\frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} - ( \frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} ) ^{2}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1} : \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )}

\frac{\frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} - ( \frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} ) ^{2}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{\frac{s i n ( x )}{c o s ( x )} - \frac{s i n ^{2} ( x )}{c o s ^{2} ( x )}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1}

Join

\frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} - \frac{sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )} : \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )}

= cos^{2} (x)

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

cos^{2} (x)

For

\frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

cos (x)

\frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x ) cos ( x )} = \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )}

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

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

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

= \frac{\frac{s i n ( x ) c o s ( x ) - s i n ^{2} ( x )}{c o s ^{2} ( x )}}{2 sin ( x ) - 1}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )}

\frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )} < 0

Find the zeroes and undifined points of

\frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )}

To find the zeroes, set the inequality to zero

\frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )} = 0

\frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )} = 0, 0 \leq x < 2 π : x = 0, x = π, x = \frac{π}{4}, x = \frac{5 π}{4}

\frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) - sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x ) ( 2 sin ( x ) - 1 )} = 0, 0 \leq x < 2 π

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

sin (x) cos (x) - sin^{2} (x) = 0

Factor

sin (x) cos (x) - sin^{2} (x) : sin (x) (cos (x) - sin (x))

sin (x) cos (x) - sin^{2} (x)

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

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

= sin (x) cos (x) - sin (x) sin (x)

Factor out common term

sin (x)

= sin (x) (cos (x) - sin (x))

sin (x) (cos (x) - sin (x)) = 0
