    Well, you're not gong to make it easy, are you?
csc(?)
also, setting a trig function(x) = x is not amenable to solution by hand.
So, assuming you meant
cot^2(x)+csc(x) = 0,
since cot^2 = csc^2-1,
csc^2(x)-1+csc(x) = 0
csc(x) = (-1 +/- sqrt(5))/2
still not a usually used value.

    Just supposing you meant what you typed
cot^2x+csc=x
cos^2 x/sin^2 x + 1 sinx = x
