..sinθ + tanθ
-------------------..... note tanθ = sinθ/cosθ
..cosθ + 1
....sinθ + sinθ/cosθ.......cosθ
=------------------------- x ----------
.....cosθ + 1...................cosθ
..sinθcosθ + sinθ
=------------------------
.....cosθ(cosθ + 1)
...sinθ(cosθ + 1)
=----------------------- cancel out cosθ + 1
....cosθ(cosθ + 1)
= tanθ prove//

tanθ = sinθ/cosθ so,
(sinθ + (sinθ/cosθ))/(cosθ + 1)
=> [(sinθcosθ + sinθ)/cosθ]/(cosθ + 1)
i.e. [sinθ(cosθ + 1)/cosθ]/(cosθ + 1)
=> [sinθ/cosθ](cosθ + 1)/(cosθ + 1)
so, sinθ/cosθ => tanθ

To prove that-
(sinθ + tanθ)/(cosθ + 1) = tanθ
...........................sin θ
LHS = [ sin θ + --------- ] divided by ( cos θ + 1 )
.......................... cos θ
...... sin θ * cos θ + sin θ
=> -------------------------------- divided by ( 1 + cos θ )
................... cos θ
.... sin θ ( 1 + cos θ )
=>-------------------------- divided by ( 1 + cos θ )
............ cos θ
.......sin θ ( 1 + cos θ )...............1..
=> --------------------------- x -----------------
............... cos θ ..................( 1 + cos θ ).
............ sin θ
=>--------------- = tan θ = RHS .................... Proved
.......... cos θ
