Answer

So, the simplified expression is csc2x.

Steps

Step 1 :Given the expression cos2xsin2x+cscxsinx

Step 2 :We can simplify this using trigonometric identities. The first term is the square of cotangent function, i.e., cot2x. The second term is the product of cosecant and sine function, which simplifies to 1. So, the expression simplifies to cot2x+1.

Step 3 :However, we know that cot2x+1=csc2x.

Step 4 :So, the simplified expression is csc2x.
