cot(2x)=cos(2x)sin(2x)=12(sin(x))22sin(x)cos(x).
In the right-angled triangle ABC drawn on x-y axis, A is point (-12,0), B is (0,0) and C is (0,-5).
Angle ABC is a right-angle and BAC=x.
cos(x)=ABAC=1213.BC=AC2AB2=132122=25=5.
sin(x)=BCAC=513(cosec(x)<0).cot(2x)=(12251692(513)(1213)=16950120=119120).
