The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \((\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha) / (\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha) \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \alpha\right) + 1\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Expression We start with the expression: \[ \frac{\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha}{\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha} \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \alpha\right) + 1 \] ### Step 2: Use the Identity for \(\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \alpha\right)\) Recall the tangent addition formula: \[ \tan(A + B) = \frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] Here, \(A = \frac{\pi}{4}\) and \(B = \alpha\). Since \(\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = 1\), we can write: \[ \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \alpha\right) = \frac{1 + \tan \alpha}{1 - \tan \alpha} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the Identity into the Expression Now we substitute this back into our expression: \[ \frac{\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha}{\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha} \cdot \frac{1 + \tan \alpha}{1 - \tan \alpha} + 1 \] ### Step 4: Divide Numerator and Denominator by \(\cos \alpha\) Next, we divide both the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by \(\cos \alpha\): \[ \frac{\frac{\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha} + 1}{1 - \frac{\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha}} \cdot \frac{1 + \tan \alpha}{1 - \tan \alpha} + 1 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{\tan \alpha + 1}{1 - \tan \alpha} \cdot \frac{1 + \tan \alpha}{1 - \tan \alpha} + 1 \] ### Step 5: Simplify the Product Now we can multiply the two fractions: \[ \frac{(\tan \alpha + 1)(1 + \tan \alpha)}{(1 - \tan \alpha)(1 - \tan \alpha)} + 1 \] This results in: \[ \frac{\tan^2 \alpha + 2\tan \alpha + 1}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2} + 1 \] The numerator can be factored as: \[ \frac{(\tan \alpha + 1)^2}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2} + 1 \] ### Step 6: Combine the Terms We can express \(1\) as \(\frac{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2}\): \[ \frac{(\tan \alpha + 1)^2 + (1 - \tan \alpha)^2}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2} \] ### Step 7: Expand and Simplify Now, we expand the numerator: \[ (\tan^2 \alpha + 2\tan \alpha + 1) + (1 - 2\tan \alpha + \tan^2 \alpha) = 2\tan^2 \alpha + 2 \] Thus, we have: \[ \frac{2(\tan^2 \alpha + 1)}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2} \] ### Step 8: Use the Pythagorean Identity Using the identity \(1 + \tan^2 \alpha = \sec^2 \alpha\): \[ \frac{2\sec^2 \alpha}{(1 - \tan \alpha)^2} \] ### Step 9: Final Simplification This can be further simplified, but we can also express it in terms of cosecant: \[ \sec^2 \alpha = \csc^2\left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha\right) \] Thus, we arrive at: \[ \csc^2\left(\frac{\pi}{4} - \alpha\right) \] ### Final Result The expression simplifies to: \[ \csc^2\left(\frac{\pi}{4} - \alpha\right) \]
