How can I simplify (1/csc^2 x) + (1/sec^2 x) ?

Question

Reviewing identities and stuff for calculus class

Answer 1

i see numbers with letters and alligator signs

Answer 2

(1/csc^2 x) is equal to sin^2 x

(1/sec^2 x)  is equal to cos^2 x

so sin^2 x + cos^2 x = 1 by Pythagorean Identity

Good luck to you !

Answer 3

csc(x) = 1/sin(x), and sec(x) = 1/cos(x)

1/csc²(x) + 1/sec²(x) = sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1

Answer 4

cos ² x + sin ² x = 1

Answer 5

Well,

1/csc^2 = Sin^2x

1/sec^2 = Cos^2x

(sinx)^2 + (cosx)^2 = 1

That's your answer man!

Ask me more question.  lol  I just took Calculus 2 last quarter.  It's pretty fun.  However, I failed that class.

Hmm..But I know for sure, that my answer to your question is the only and the right answer.
