I have the following trigonometric identity
cosx−cosx1−tanx=sinxcosxsinx−cosx
I've been trying to verify it for almost 20 minutes but coming up with nothing
Thank you
Answer
Observe that we need to eliminate tanx
So, using tanx=sinxcosx,
cosx−cosx1−tanx
=cosx(1−11−sinxcosx)
=cosx(1−cosxcosx−sinx)( multiplying numerator & denominator by cosx)
=cosx(1+cosxsinx−cosx)
=cosx(sinxsinx−cosx)
