Explanation

Given cosx(tan x + cot x):

Step 1: Express tan x and cot x in terms of sin x and cos x

tan x = sin x / cos x

cot x = cos x / sin x

Step 2: Substitute and simplify

cosx(tan x + cot x) = cosx(sin x / cos x + cos x / sin x)

= sin x + cos² x / sin x

= (sin² x + cos² x) / sin x

= 1 / sin x (since sin² x + cos² x = 1)

Step 3: Identify the result

1 / sin x = cosec x
