Simplify the following expression into an algebraic one that
Simplify the following expression into an algebraic one, that is, without any trig or inverse trig functions:
tan(arcsin(x))
Solution
tan (arc sin (x ))
let arc sin x = y
sin y = x
perpoendicular / hypotenuse = x/1
base = sqrt ( 1 - x^2 )
tan (y ) = perpendicular / base
= x / sqrt (1-x^2 )
or
tan ( arc sin (x)) =x / sqrt (1 - x^2 )
