Prove the following trigonometric identities.
`(1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ - sin θ) = (1 + sin θ)/cos θ`
Prove the following:
`(1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ - sin θ) = (1 + sin θ)/cos θ`

Solution
`(1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ - sin θ) = (1 + sin θ)/cos θ`
Consider the LHS = `(1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ - sin θ)`
`= ((1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ - sin θ))((1 + cos θ + sin θ)/(1 + cos θ + sin θ))`
`= (1 + cos θ + sin θ)^2/((1 + cos θ)^2 sin^2 θ)`
`= (2 + 2(cos θ + sin θ + sin θ cos θ))/(2 cos^2 θ+ 2 cos θ)`
`= (2(1 + cos θ)(1 + sin θ))/(2 cos θ (1 + cos θ))`
`= (1 + sin θ)/cos θ`
= RHS
Hence proved

If cot θ = `40/9`, find the values of cosec θ and sinθ,
We have, 1 + cot2θ = cosec2θ
1 + `square` = cosec2θ
1 + `square` = cosec2θ
`(square + square)/square` = cosec2θ
`square/square` = cosec2θ ......[Taking root on the both side]
cosec θ = `41/9`
and sin θ = `1/("cosec" θ)`
sin θ = `1/square`
∴ sin θ = `9/41`
The value is cosec θ = `41/9`, and sin θ = `9/41`
