Simplify sin(x)cot(x)sec(x)

Problem

sin(x)*cot(x)*sec(x)

Solution

1. Rewrite the trigonometric functions cot(x) and sec(x) in terms of sin(x) and cos(x)

cot(x)=cos(x)/sin(x)

sec(x)=1/cos(x)

2. Substitute these expressions back into the original product.

sin(x)⋅cos(x)/sin(x)⋅1/cos(x)

3. Cancel the common factors in the numerator and denominator.

(sin(x)*cos(x))/(sin(x)*cos(x))

4. Simplify the resulting fraction.

Final Answer

sin(x)*cot(x)*sec(x)=1
