Solution

tan x = `"n"/("n" + 1)`, tan y = `1/(2"n" + 1)`

tan(x + y) = `(tanx + tany)/(1 - tanx tany)`

= `("n"/("n" + 1) + 1/(2"n" + 1))/(1 - "n"/("n" + 1)  * 1/(2"n" + 1))`

= `(("n"(2"n" + 1) + "n" + 1)/(("n" + 1)(2"n" + 1)))/((("n" + 1)(2"n" + 1) - "n")/(("n" + 1)(2"n" + 1))`

= `("n"(2"n" + 1) + "n" + 1)/(("n" + 1)(2"n" + 1) - "n")`

= `(2"n"^2 + "n" + "n" + 1)/(2"n"^2 + "n" + 2"n" + 1 - "n")`

= `(2"n"^2 + 2"n" + 1)/(2"n"^2 + 2"n" + 1)`

tan(x + y) = 1
