STEP 1

Assumptions1. All the trigonometric functions are defined for the given values of xx. . The operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are all valid for the given values of xx.
Let's start with the first equationa) sinxsinx1+cosx=1+cosxsinx\frac{}{\sin x}-\frac{\sin x}{1+\cos x}=\frac{1+\cos x}{\sin x}

STEP 2

To simplify the equation, we will first find a common denominator for the left side of the equation. The common denominator is sinx(1+cosx)\sin x(1+\cos x).
2(1+cosx)sinx(1+cosx)sin2xsinx(1+cosx)\frac{2(1+\cos x)}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}-\frac{\sin^2 x}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}

STEP 3

Subtract the two fractions on the left side of the equation.
2(1+cosx)sin2xsinx(1+cosx)\frac{2(1+\cos x) - \sin^2 x}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}

STEP 4

implify the numerator using the Pythagorean identity sin2x+cos2x=1\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x =1.
2sin2x+2cosxsinx(1+cosx)\frac{2 - \sin^2 x +2\cos x}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}

STEP 5

Now, simplify the right side of the equation by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by (1+cosx)(1+\cos x).
(1+cosx)2sinx(1+cosx)\frac{(1+\cos x)^2}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}

STEP 6

Now, equate the simplified left side and right side of the equation.
2sin2x+2cosxsinx(1+cosx)=(1+cosx)2sinx(1+cosx)\frac{2 - \sin^2 x +2\cos x}{\sin x(1+\cos x)} = \frac{(1+\cos x)^2}{\sin x(1+\cos x)}

STEP 7

Since the denominators on both sides are the same, we can equate the numerators.
2sin2x+2cosx=(1+cosx)22 - \sin^2 x +2\cos x = (1+\cos x)^2

STEP 8

implify the right side of the equation.
2sin2x+2cosx=1+2cosx+cos2x2 - \sin^2 x +2\cos x =1 +2\cos x + \cos^2 x

STEP 9

Rearrange the equation to one side to get a quadratic equation in terms of cosx\cos x.
cos2x2cosx+sin2x=\cos^2 x -2\cos x + \sin^2 x - =

STEP 10

Substitute sin2x\sin^2 x with cos2x - \cos^2 x.
2cos2x2cosx=02\cos^2 x -2\cos x =0

STEP 11

Factor out cosx\cos x.
cosx(cosx)=0\cos x(\cos x -) =0

STEP 12

Set each factor equal to zero and solve for xx.
cosx=0orcosx=\cos x =0 \quad \text{or} \quad \cos x =These are the solutions for the first equation.
Now, let's move on to the second equationc) tgx(cotg2x)=cotgx(tg2x)\operatorname{tg} x\left(\operatorname{cotg}^{2} x-\right)=\operatorname{cotg} x\left(-\operatorname{tg}^{2} x\right)

STEP 13

We can simplify the equation by using the reciprocal identity cotgx=tgx\operatorname{cotg} x = \frac{}{\operatorname{tg} x}.
tgx(tg2x)=tgx(tg2x)\operatorname{tg} x\left(\frac{}{\operatorname{tg}^2 x}-\right)=\frac{}{\operatorname{tg} x}\left(-\operatorname{tg}^{2} x\right)

STEP 14

Multiply each term inside the parentheses by tg2x\operatorname{tg}^2 x.
tgx(tg2x)=tg2xtgx\operatorname{tg} x( - \operatorname{tg}^2 x) = \frac{ - \operatorname{tg}^2 x}{\operatorname{tg} x}

STEP 15

Multiply both sides by tgx\operatorname{tg} x to get rid of the denominator on the right side.
tg2x(tg2x)=tg2x\operatorname{tg}^2 x( - \operatorname{tg}^2 x) = - \operatorname{tg}^2 x

STEP 16

Rearrange the equation to one side to get a quadratic equation in terms of tgx\operatorname{tg} x.
tg4xtg2x=0\operatorname{tg}^4 x - \operatorname{tg}^2 x =0

STEP 17

Factor out tg2x\operatorname{tg}^2 x.
tg2x(tg2x)=0\operatorname{tg}^2 x(\operatorname{tg}^2 x -) =0

STEP 18

Set each factor equal to zero and solve for xx.
tgx=0ortgx=±\operatorname{tg} x =0 \quad \text{or} \quad \operatorname{tg} x = \pmThese are the solutions for the second equation.
