Understand Identities: Understand the trigonometric identities involved.The trigonometric identities that we need to know for this problem are:1. tanx=cosxsinx2. cscx=sinx1We will use these identities to simplify the expression.
Substitute Identities: Substitute the identities into the expression. tanxcscxcosx=(sinx/cosx)∗(1/sinx)∗cosx
Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression by canceling out terms.(sinx/cosx)∗(1/sinx)∗cosx=(sinx∗1∗cosx)/(cosx∗sinx)=1The sinx and cosx terms cancel out because they appear in both the numerator and the denominator.
