    Read this first: Expectations Homework Help
    Do not simply retype or paste a question from your book or study material

    We won't do your homework questions for you.
    You were given the assignment for you to learn.

    If you come up with your own answer and post it for us to critique that is within reason.

    If you have some SPECIFIC questions that you couldn't find or didn't understand, we may help with that.
    But this is your assignment, so show us you have at least attempted to complete it on your own.

    Thank you.

    Smoothy's right.

    But if you want some advice, for questions like these, always rewrite the trig functions in terms of sines and cosines. Once you write all three terms as fractions like 1/sin x, etc. certain terms will cancel and the answer will be obvious.
