I'm trying the various forms of simplify I see in the docs, but most say "not found" What exactly is going on? Have some been superseded? What ones still work in Sagemath 9.3 for Windows? i.e. "simplify_full()", "simplify_trig()", "simplify_rational()",\n "simplify_rectform()" "simplify_factorial()", "simplify_log()",\n "simplify_real()", "simplify_hypergeometric()",\n "canonicalize_radical()"

for instance: simplify_trig? Object simplify_trig not found. simplify_full? Object simplify_full not found.

Where am I confused?

I seem to recall using these but didn't use sage for a while. What works now?

They are methods rather than functions.

They can be applied to symbolic expressions.

Try this for instance.

sage: x = SR.var('x')
sage: expr = sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2
sage: expr.simplify_trig()
