Here, we show you a step-by-step solved example of trigonometry. This solution was automatically generated by our smart calculator:

$\tan\left(x\right)+\cot\left(x\right)=\sec\left(x\right)\csc\left(x\right)$
2

Starting from the right-hand side (RHS) of the identity

$\sec\left(x\right)\csc\left(x\right)$
3

Applying the secant identity: $\displaystyle\sec\left(\theta\right)=\frac{1}{\cos\left(\theta\right)}$

$\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)}\csc\left(x\right)$
4

Applying the cosecant identity: $\displaystyle\csc\left(\theta\right)=\frac{1}{\sin\left(\theta\right)}$

$\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)}\frac{1}{\sin\left(x\right)}$
5

Multiplying fractions $\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)} \times \frac{1}{\sin\left(x\right)}$

$\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)}$
6

Multiply $\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)}$ by $\frac{sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2}{sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2}$

$\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)}\frac{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}$
7

Multiplying fractions $\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)} \times \frac{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}$

$\frac{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)\left(\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2\right)}$
8

Applying the pythagorean identity: $\sin^2\left(\theta\right)+\cos^2\left(\theta\right)=1$

$\frac{\sin\left(x\right)^2+\cos\left(x\right)^2}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)}$
9

Applying the pythagorean identity: $\sin^2\left(\theta\right)+\cos^2\left(\theta\right)=1$

$\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)\sin\left(x\right)}$
10

Since we have reached the expression of our goal, we have proven the identity
