prove that: cos[tan^-1 {sin ( cot^-1 x)}] = {(1 + x^2)/(2 + x^2)}^1/2


Draw a right triangle with angle, "near side" x, and "opposite side" 1. That way
"near side"/"opposite side"
so
= "opposite side"/"hypotenuse". The "opposite side" is 1 and, by the Pythagorean theorem, the "hypotenuse" is
:
.
Now, draw a right triangle with angle, "opposite side" 1 and "near side"
so that
and so
.
is the "near side"/"hypotenuse" for this triangle. Since the "near side" is
and the "opposite side" is 1, use the Pythagorean theorem again to find the hypotenuse of this triangle.
