Can someone walk me through simplifying sec(?)?^2 * cot(?) * cos(?) =
I thought it'd be (1 / cos(θ)2) * (1 / tan(θ)) * (cos(θ) / 1)
Which would get you cos(θ) / cos(θ)2 * tan(θ)
And then coming out to 1 / cos(θ) * tan(θ)
but that doesn't make sense...

Please help me with these identity proofs!!
1) (cscx + cotx) / (tanx + sinx) = cotxcscx
2) (1/secx) -secx = -sinx
3) (1-tan^2x / 1-cot^2x) = -tan^2x

sin^2 x/2 = tanx-sinx/2tanx
=(sinx/cosx - sinx)/ (2sinx/cosx) = sinx-sinxcosx/cosx • cosx/2sinx = sinx (1-cosx)/2sinx = 1-cosx/2 now im lost help!!

1/8sin29.5cos29.5
I know that i should multiply something to it for it to become 2sinAcosA for me to be able to solve it. Unfortunately, if i multiply2/2 to it will just become 2/16 that will just bounce back to 1/8...

Verify/prove: (1-cos^2x)(1+cos^2x) = 2sin^2x-sin^4x
I chose to manipulate the left hand side. So i got 1+cos2x-cos2x-cos4x
when i simplify it will be 1-cos4x i will break it into pieces so (1-cos2x)(1+cos2x) i can change the first term to sin so...

How can I solve sin(2x) = sin(x/2) for all values of x?
I can find x = 0, and also can show that cos x = (1/4)*(-1+/-sqrt(5)), but I don't know how I should have known that the latter cosines of x correspond to angles involving fifths of pi (radians)?...
