I'm trying to simplify an expression symbolically and I get the same error every time.

Undefined function or variable 'x'.

I'm even using the actual example matlab provides. Trying to just simplify the expression sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 I get the error everytime. I'm brand new...what am I missing.

What exactly is your command? It seems like you haven't told MATLAB what the value of x is. First, initialize a value for x and the carry on.

 x = 0.5;
 sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2;

I tried your code and it gives me a specific answer. I want to simplify an expression. Not get a specific answer.

simplify() requires the Symbolic Toolbox, and it works on symbolic expressions.

syms x
simplify( sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 )

The function u[1]/(u[2]^0.5) shows the error "result of the function is undefined" in matlab simulink user defined function. What could be the reason?
