Step-by-step explanation:

There is nothing to "solve." This equation is a trig identity.

Often, it works well to express all trig functions in terms of sine and cosine. When you're trying to prove an identity, you usually pick one side to rearrange, and leave the other side alone. Here, we will rearrange the right side.


\csc\theta=(\cot\theta+1)/(\cos\theta+\sin\theta)\\\\\csc\theta=((\cos\theta)/(\sin\theta)+1)/(\cos\theta+\sin\theta)=(\left((\cos\theta+\sin\theta)/(\sin\theta)\right))/(\cos\theta+\sin\theta)=(1)/(\sin\theta)\\\\\csc\theta=\csc\theta
