sin(–θ)cot(–θ)=cosθ

L .H.S sin(–θ)cot(–θ)

Even-Odd Identities:sin(–θ)= –sinθ and cot(–θ)= –cotθ

(–sinθ) (–cotθ)

Quotient Identities: cotθ=cosθ/sinθ

(–sinθ)(–cosθ/sinθ)

Cancel common terms.

(–)(–cosθ)

Product of two negative signs are positive.

cosθ=R.H.S

Therefore sin(–θ)cot(–θ)=cosθ.

43).

Consider that, the trigonometric equation as csc (θ) + sin (- θ) = cos2 (θ) / sin (θ).

Left hand side identity : csc (θ) + sin (- θ).

Reciprocal identity : csc (θ) = 1/sin (θ).

csc (θ) + sin (- θ) = (1/ sin (θ)) + sin (- θ)

Even - Odd Identities : sin(– θ) = – sin (θ).

= (1/ sin (θ)) - sin (θ)

= (1 - sin2 θ) / sin (θ)

Pythagoras identity : sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1.

= (cos2 θ) / sin (θ)

= Right hand side identity.
