Prove the following identity:

(tanθ+sinθtanθsinθ)=(secθ+1secθ1)\Big(\dfrac{\tan \theta + \sin \theta}{\tan \theta - \sin \theta}\Big) = \Big(\dfrac{\sec \theta + 1}{\sec \theta - 1}\Big)

Solving L.H.S of the equation,

tanθ+sinθtanθsinθsinθcosθ+sinθsinθcosθsinθsinθ(1cosθ+1)sinθ(1cosθ1)1cosθ+11cosθ1secθ+1secθ1.\Rightarrow \dfrac{\tan \theta + \sin \theta}{\tan \theta - \sin \theta} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \sin \theta}{\dfrac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} - \sin \theta} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{\sin \theta \Big(\dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} + 1\Big)}{\sin \theta \Big(\dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} - 1\Big)} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} + 1}{\dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} - 1} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{\sec \theta + 1}{\sec \theta - 1}.

Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Hence, proved that (tanθ+sinθtanθsinθ)=(secθ+1secθ1)\Big(\dfrac{\tan \theta + \sin \theta}{\tan \theta - \sin \theta}\Big) = \Big(\dfrac{\sec \theta + 1}{\sec \theta - 1}\Big).
