10.2.5 Simplifying
The simplify command
simplifies expressions. As with all
automatic simplifications, do not expect miracles; you will have to
use specific rewriting rules if it does not work.
-
simplify takes
expr, an expression.
- simplify(expr) returns the
simplified version of expr.
Example
simplify((sin(3*x)+sin(7*x))/sin(5*x)) |
Remark.
simplify is more efficient in radian mode (which you
can turn on, if it is not done already, by checking the radian
box in the CAS configuration or inputting angle_radian:=1, see
Section 2.5.3).
