QuestionUse identities to find an expression equivalent to 1+sin(6x)1sin(6x)1sin(6x)1+sin(6x)\frac{1+\sin (6 x)}{1-\sin (6 x)}-\frac{1-\sin (6 x)}{1+\sin (6 x)}

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are asked to simplify the given expression using trigonometric identities.
2. The expression involves the sine function and can be simplified using algebraic manipulation and trigonometric identities.

STEP 2

1. Simplify the expression by combining the fractions.
2. Use trigonometric identities to further simplify the expression.

STEP 3

Combine the fractions by finding a common denominator. The common denominator for the two fractions is (1sin(6x))(1+sin(6x))(1 - \sin(6x))(1 + \sin(6x)).
1+sin(6x)1sin(6x)1sin(6x)1+sin(6x)=(1+sin(6x))2(1sin(6x))2(1sin(6x))(1+sin(6x))\frac{1+\sin (6 x)}{1-\sin (6 x)} - \frac{1-\sin (6 x)}{1+\sin (6 x)} = \frac{(1+\sin(6x))^2 - (1-\sin(6x))^2}{(1-\sin(6x))(1+\sin(6x))}

STEP 4

Simplify the numerator using the difference of squares formula:
(1+sin(6x))2(1sin(6x))2=[(1+sin(6x))(1sin(6x))][(1+sin(6x))+(1sin(6x))](1+\sin(6x))^2 - (1-\sin(6x))^2 = [(1+\sin(6x)) - (1-\sin(6x))][(1+\sin(6x)) + (1-\sin(6x))]
=[2sin(6x)][2]=4sin(6x)= [2\sin(6x)][2] = 4\sin(6x)

STEP 5

Simplify the denominator using the identity for the difference of squares:
(1sin(6x))(1+sin(6x))=1(sin(6x))2=cos2(6x)(1-\sin(6x))(1+\sin(6x)) = 1 - (\sin(6x))^2 = \cos^2(6x)

STEP 6

Substitute the simplified numerator and denominator back into the expression:
4sin(6x)cos2(6x)\frac{4\sin(6x)}{\cos^2(6x)}
This simplifies to:
4sin(6x)cos2(6x)=4tan(6x)sec(6x)4 \cdot \frac{\sin(6x)}{\cos^2(6x)} = 4 \cdot \tan(6x) \cdot \sec(6x)
The equivalent expression is:
4tan(6x)sec(6x)\boxed{4 \tan(6x) \sec(6x)}
