Question
`(sin theta+1-cos theta)/(cos theta-1+sin theta) = (1+ sin theta)/(cos theta)`
Solution
LHS= `(sin theta+1cos theta)/(cos theta-1+sin theta) `
=`((sin theta+1-cos theta)(sin theta+cos theta+1))/((cos theta -1 + sin theta)(sin theta + cos theta +1))`
=`((sin theta + 1 )^2 - cos^2 theta)/((sin theta + cos theta )^2 -1^2)`
=`(sin^2 theta +1+2 sin theta - cos^2 theta)/(sin^2 + cos^2 theta+2 sin theta cos theta -1)`
=`(sin^2 theta + sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta +2sin theta - cos^2 theta)/(2 sin theta cos theta)`
=`(2 sin ^2 theta + 2 sin theta)/(2 sin theta cos theta)`
=`(2 sin theta (1+ sin theta))/(2 sin theta cos theta)`
=`(1+sin theta)/cos theta`
= RHS
