prove (csc^4(x)-1)/(cot^2(x))=csc^2(x)+1

prove

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{cot ^{2} ( x )} = csc^{2} (x) + 1

True

Solution steps

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{cot ^{2} ( x )} = csc^{2} (x) + 1

Manipulating left side

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{cot ^{2} ( x )}

Rewrite using trig identities

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{cot ^{2} ( x )}

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

= \frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{csc ^{2} ( x ) - 1}

Simplify

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{csc ^{2} ( x ) - 1} : csc^{2} (x) + 1

\frac{csc ^{4} ( x ) - 1}{csc ^{2} ( x ) - 1}

Factor

csc^{4} (x) - 1 : (csc^{2} (x) + 1) (csc (x) + 1) (csc (x) - 1)

csc^{4} (x) - 1

Rewrite

csc^{4} (x) - 1

(csc^{2} (x))^{2} - 1^{2}

csc^{4} (x) - 1

Rewrite

1

1^{2}

= csc^{4} (x) - 1^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

csc^{4} (x) = (csc^{2} (x))^{2}

= (csc^{2} (x))^{2} - 1^{2}

= (csc^{2} (x))^{2} - 1^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

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

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

Factor

csc^{2} (x) - 1 : (csc (x) + 1) (csc (x) - 1)

csc^{2} (x) - 1

Rewrite

1

1^{2}

= csc^{2} (x) - 1^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

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

= (csc (x) + 1) (csc (x) - 1)

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

= \frac{( csc ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}{csc ^{2} ( x ) - 1}

Factor

csc^{2} (x) - 1 : (csc (x) + 1) (csc (x) - 1)

csc^{2} (x) - 1

Rewrite

1

1^{2}

= csc^{2} (x) - 1^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

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

= (csc (x) + 1) (csc (x) - 1)

= \frac{( csc ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}{( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}

Cancel

\frac{( csc ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}{( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )} : csc^{2} (x) + 1

\frac{( csc ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}{( csc ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}

Cancel the common factor:

csc (x) + 1

= \frac{( csc ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) ( csc ( x ) - 1 )}{csc ( x ) - 1}

Cancel the common factor:

csc (x) - 1

= csc^{2} (x) + 1

= csc^{2} (x) + 1

= csc^{2} (x) + 1

= csc^{2} (x) + 1

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True

sin (2 x) tan (x) = 1 - cos (2 x)

\frac{1}{csc ( x )} = sin (x)

sin (θ) + cos (θ) = 2 sin (θ + 4 5^{\circ})

\frac{1 - tan ( θ )}{1 + tan ( θ )} = \frac{cot ( θ ) - 1}{cot ( θ ) + 1}

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