Answer/Step-by-step explanation:


(1-\cos \left(x\right))/(\sin \left(x\right))=(\sin \left(x\right))/(1+\cos \left(x\right))

When you have an equation like this, you can start from either side. So, let us start from the left side.


\underline{\mathrm{Left\:side:}} \quad(1-\cos \left(x\right))/(\sin \left(x\right))


\sf{Rewrite\: using \:Trig \:identities=(\sin \left(x\right))/(1+\cos \left(x\right))}\\\\\mathrm{Therefore,\: it \:is \:true}
