Step 1 :Start with the more complicated side of the equation, which is \(\csc x - \sin x\).
Step 2 :Convert \(\csc x\) to \(\frac{1}{\sin x}\), as \(\csc x\) is the reciprocal of \(\sin x\).
Step 3 :Perform the subtraction by finding a common denominator, which gives \(-\sin^2 x + 1\).
Step 4 :Simplify the expression to \(\frac{\cos^2 x}{\sin x}\).
Step 5 :Compare the simplified expression to the other side of the equation, which is \(\cos x \cot x\).
Step 6 :Convert \(\cot x\) to \(\frac{\cos x}{\sin x}\), which gives \(\frac{\cos^2 x}{\sin x}\).
Step 7 :The simplified left side of the equation is equal to the simplified right side of the equation.
Step 8 :\(\boxed{\text{Therefore, the equation } \csc x-\sin x=\cos x \cot x \text{ is an identity.}}\)
