To simplify this expression, we will first rewrite ctg in terms of sine and cosine:
ctg(x) = 1/tan(x) = cos(x)/sin(x)
Now, let's rewrite the given expression using this formula:
5(cos(x)/sin(x)) - 2(cos(pi - x)/sin(pi - x))
Since sin(pi - x) = sin(pi)cos(x) - cos(pi)sin(x) = 0 - (-1)*sin(x) = sin(x),
we can simplify the expression further:
5(cos(x)/sin(x)) - 2(-1)(cos(x)/sin(x))= 5(cos(x)/sin(x)) + 2(cos(x)/sin(x))= (5+2)(cos(x)/sin(x))= 7*(cos(x)/sin(x))
Next, we know that cotangent (ctg) is the reciprocal of tangent (tan), which is equal to 1/(tan(x)) = cos(x)/sin(x). Thus, we have:
7*(cos(x)/sin(x)) = 1
Therefore, the given expression simplifies to 1.
