Question

Simplify the expression. csc theta/cot theta

Answer 1

sec or 1/cos

Explanation:

1/sin * sin/cos

sin cancels out

1/cos = sec

Answer 2

sec(theta)

Explanation:

csc(theta) = 1/sin(theta)

cot(theta) = cos(theta)/sin(theta)

csc(theta) ÷ cot(theta)

1/sin(theta) ÷ cos(theta)/sin(theta)

1/sin(theta) × sin(theta)/cos(theta)

1/cos(theta)

sec(theta)
