Simplify (cos(theta))/(sin(theta))

Problem

cos(θ)/sin(θ)

Solution

1. Identify the trigonometric ratio being presented.

2. Apply the definition of the cotangent function, which is defined as the ratio of the cosine of an angle to the sine of that same angle.

3. Simplify the expression by substituting the equivalent trigonometric identity.

Final Answer

cos(θ)/sin(θ)=cot(θ)
