### Proof of the derivative of the cosecant function?

Express the cosecant in terms of sines and cosines; in this case, csc x = 1 / sin x. This can also be written as (sin x)-1. Remember that the derivative of sin x is cos x, and use either the formula for the derivative of a quotient (using the first expression), or the formula for the derivative of a power (using the second expression).

### Can you use the equation given below to find the second derivative of pi divided by 6 if fx equals cscx?

pi divided by 6 is a constant and so its first derivative is 0. And since that is also a constant, the second derivative is 0. It is not clear what f(x) = csc(x) has to do with that!

### How do you get the second derivative of g of x equals xcscx where x equals theta?

T=theta so that it will not look so messy. g(T)=TcscT To find the first derivative, you must use the product rule. Product rule is derivative of the first times the second, plus the first times the derivative of the second, which will give you: g'(T)=0xcscT + Tx-cscTcotT, which simplifies: g'(T)= -cscTxcotT Now, take the derivative of that to get the second derivatice. In order to do that, you have to do the product rule again. g"(T)=(cscTcotT)cotT + -cscT(-csc^2T) {that's csc squared} which simplifies: g"(T)= cscTcot^2(T) + csc^3 (T)

### How do you simplify csc theta cot theta?

There are 6 basic trig functions.sin(x) = 1/csc(x)cos(x) = 1/sec(x)tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) or 1/cot(x)csc(x) = 1/sin(x)sec(x) = 1/cos(x)cot(x) = cos(x)/sin(x) or 1/tan(x)---- In your problem csc(x)*cot(x) we can simplify csc(x).csc(x) = 1/sin(x)Similarly, cot(x) = cos(x)/sin(x).csc(x)*cot(x) = (1/sin[x])*(cos[x]/sin[x])= cos(x)/sin2(x) = cos(x) * 1/sin2(x)Either of the above answers should work.In general, try converting your trig functions into sine and cosine to make things simpler.

### Csc squared divided by cot equals csc x sec. can someone make them equal?

cot(x)=1/tan(x)=1/(sin(x)/cos(x))=cos(x)/sin(x) csc(x)=1/sin(x) sec(x)=1/cos(x) Therefore, (csc(x))2/cot(x)=(1/(sin(x))2)/cot(x)=(1/(sin(x))2)/(cos(x)/sin(x))=(1/(sin(x))2)(sin(x)/cos(x))=(1/sin(x))*(1/cos(x))=csc(x)*sec(x)

### What is sec squared x times csc x divided by sec squared x plus csc squared x?

Ah, secant, annoying as always. Why don't we use its definition as 1/cos x and csc as 1/sin x? We will do that Also, please write down the equation, there is at least TWO different equations you are talking about. x^n means x to the power of n 1/(sin x) ^2 is csc squared x, it's actually csc x all squared 1/(cos x) ^2 in the same manner.

### How do you make 'cot' and 'csc' on a TI-84 graphing calculator?

From math class, some trigonometric identities: cot x = 1/tan x csc x = 1/sin x sec x = 1/cos x There are no built-in cot or csc formulas, so use the above. Remember that these give errors when tan x, sin x, or cos x are equal to 0.
