Write the following as a function of x with no trig function
Write the following as a function of x with no trig functions: sin (sec^-1 1/Squareroot 1 - x^2 + csc^-1 Squareroot 1 + x^2)
Solution
Let arcsec be A and arccosec be B
That is secA=1/(1-x^2)^1/2 and csc = (1+x^2)1/2
That is CosA =(1-x^2)1/2 SinA =x
Sin B = 1/(1+x^2)1/2 and Cos B =x/(1+x^2)1/2
Now the given expression is
Sin (A+B) = SinA Cos B +CosASinB
=x*x/(1+x^2)1/2 + (1-x^2)1/2*1/(1+x^2)1/2
=[x + (1-x^2)1/2]/(1+x^2)1/2
