evaluate cosec(10)+cosec(50)-cosec(70)

=6

cosec(10)+cosec(50)-cosec(70)=6

This is true but I would like to see how a mathematician can prove it as at present it has me baffled.

PROOF:
cosec 10 + cosec 50 - cosec 70
sec 80 + sec 40 - sec 20
(1/cos 80) + (1/cos 40) - (1/cos 20)
(cos 40 + cos 80) / (cos 80 cos 40) - (1/cos 20)
Apply cos A + cos B = 2 cos ((A + B)/2) cos ((A - B)/2)
(2 cos 60 cos 20) / (cos 40 cos 80) - (1/cos 20)
(cos 20) / (cos 40 cos 80) - (1/cos 20)
Take LCM and add both
(cos²20 - cos 40 cos 80) / (cos 20 cos 40 cos 80)

I am gonna solve the denominator seperately,
cos 20 cos 40 cos 80
Multiply and divide by 2 sin 20
(2 sin 20 cos 20 cos 40 cos 80) / (2 sin 20)
2 sin A cos A = sin 2A
(sin 40 cos 40 cos 80) / (2 sin 20)
Multiply and divide by 2
(2 sin 40 cos 40 cos 80) / (4 sin 20)
(sin 80 cos 80) / (4 sin 20)
Again 2,
sin 160 / (8 sin 20)
sin (180 - 20) = sin 20
sin 160 = sin 20
= 1/8
So, denominator is equal to 1/8

Our expression becomes,
8 (cos²20 - cos 40 cos 80)
Take one 2 inside and use 2 cos A cos B = cos ((A + B)/2) + cos ((A - B)/2)
4 (2cos²20 - (cos 120 + cos 40))
2cos²A = 1 + cos 2A
4 (1 + cos 40 - cos 120 - cos 40)
4 (1 - cos 120)
4 (1 - (-1/2))
4 (3/2) = 6
