$\frac{\sec\left(x\right)}{\tan\left(x\right)}+\frac{-\cos\left(x\right)}{\tan\left(x\right)}$
Learn how to solve simplify trigonometric expressions problems step by step online. Simplify the trigonometric expression (sec(x)-cos(x))/tan(x). Expand the fraction \frac{\sec\left(x\right)-\cos\left(x\right)}{\tan\left(x\right)} into 2 simpler fractions with common denominator \tan\left(x\right). Applying the secant identity: \displaystyle\sec\left(\theta\right)=\frac{1}{\cos\left(\theta\right)}. Applying the tangent identity: \displaystyle\tan\left(\theta\right)=\frac{\sin\left(\theta\right)}{\cos\left(\theta\right)}. Simplify the fraction \frac{\frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)}}{\frac{\sin\left(x\right)}{\cos\left(x\right)}}.
