Problem

Simplify the following expression by writing it in terms of sine or cosine only: \[ \frac{1}{\csc (x)}-\cot (x)= \]

Solution

Step 1 :We can write \[\frac{1}{\csc (x)}-\cot (x) = \frac{\sin x}{1} - \frac{\cos x}{\sin x}\]

Step 2 :This simplifies to \[\frac{\sin x - \cos x}{\sin x}\]

Step 3 :Finally, we can write this as \[\boxed{1 - \cot x}\]
