verify that (1+ tan(X))/sinx cosx=secx?

I'm guessing what you meant to write is this:

$<br /> \frac {1 + \tan x}{\sin x + \cos x} = \sec x<br />$

Rewrite the $\tan x$ and $\sec x$ functions in terms of their primitive $sin x$ and $\cos x$ equivalents, and it pops right out.

Then I have (1+(cosx/sinx))/Sinx+cosx

Remember that tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x). So you have

$<br /> \frac {1+\frac {\sin x} {\cos x}} {\sin x + \cos x}<br />$
