How to solve this identity? Thank you!
You need to prove that #cotx - coty = (sin(y-x))/(sinx * siny)#

Explanation:
#"using the "color(blue)"trigonometric identities"#
#•color(white)(x)sin(y-x)=sinycosx-cosysinx#
#•color(white)(x)cotx=cosx/sinx#
#"consider the left side"#
#cotx-coty#
#=cosx/sinx-cosy/siny#
#=(cosxsiny-sinxcosy)/(sinxsiny)#
#=(sin(y-x))/(sinxsiny)#
#=" right side "rArr" verified"#
