Answer

$\frac{sin~x}{1-cos~x} = cot~\frac{x}{2}$

Work Step by Step

$\frac{sin~x}{1-cos~x}$ When we graph this function, it looks like the graph of $~~cot~\frac{x}{2}$ We can verify this algebraically: $\frac{sin~x}{1-cos~x}$ $=\frac{1}{\frac{1-cos~x}{sin~x}}$ $=\frac{1}{tan~\frac{x}{2}}$ $=cot~\frac{x}{2}$
