Domain of g(x)=cos2xsin2x1tanx in R?
In R what is the domain of the function below?
g(x)=cos2xsin2x1tanx
I added two conditions:
Dg={xR:1tanx0xπ2+kπ,kZ}
This gives me:
R{x:x=π4+kπx=π2+kπ,kZ}
The solution is only:
R{x:x=π4+kπ,kZ}

You are right. The function is undefined at x=π2+kπ , because tan(x) is undefined there. The function is also undefined at x=π4+lπ, because that is where the denominator equals zero (i.e. 1=tan(x))
You can write this as
R{x:x=π2+kπx=π4+lπ,kZ,lZ}
(notice the    and notice that you need to use two different parameters  k  and l)
