Yes, cotangent is equal to cosine over sine. Thus, cotangent function for an angle θ can be written as: cot θ = cos θ/sin θ This can be derived... View Article
We know that, sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x This can be written as: 2 sin x cos x = sin 2x sin x cos x = (½) sin 2x Alternative method: sin (A +... View Article
No, the inverse of a function is different from the reciprocal of the function. We know that cosecant (i.e., csc) is the reciprocal of the sine... View Article
