Prove that: `cot x cot 2x - cot 2x cot 3x - cot 3x cot x = 1`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that \( \cot x \cot 2x - \cot 2x \cot 3x - \cot 3x \cot x = 1 \), we will use the cotangent addition formula. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Rewrite \( \cot 3x \)**: We can express \( \cot 3x \) as \( \cot(x + 2x) \). Using the cotangent addition formula: \[ \cot(a + b) = \frac{\cot a \cot b - 1}{\cot a + \cot b} ...
