The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( \sin A (1 + \tan A) + \cos A (1 + \cot A) \), we will break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Expand the expression We start by expanding the expression: \[ \sin A (1 + \tan A) + \cos A (1 + \cot A) = \sin A + \sin A \tan A + \cos A + \cos A \cot A \] ### Step 2: Substitute the definitions of tangent and cotangent Recall that: \[ \tan A = \frac{\sin A}{\cos A} \quad \text{and} \quad \cot A = \frac{\cos A}{\sin A} \] Substituting these into the expression gives: \[ \sin A + \sin A \left(\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\right) + \cos A + \cos A \left(\frac{\cos A}{\sin A}\right) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the terms Now we simplify each term: \[ \sin A + \frac{\sin^2 A}{\cos A} + \cos A + \frac{\cos^2 A}{\sin A} \] ### Step 4: Combine like terms We can combine the constant terms: \[ \sin A + \cos A + \frac{\sin^2 A}{\cos A} + \frac{\cos^2 A}{\sin A} \] ### Step 5: Find a common denominator for the fractions The common denominator for the fractions is \( \sin A \cos A \): \[ \sin A + \cos A + \frac{\sin^3 A + \cos^3 A}{\sin A \cos A} \] ### Step 6: Use the identity \( \sin^2 A + \cos^2 A = 1 \) From the Pythagorean identity, we know that \( \sin^2 A + \cos^2 A = 1 \). Thus: \[ \sin^3 A + \cos^3 A = (\sin A + \cos A)(\sin^2 A - \sin A \cos A + \cos^2 A) = (\sin A + \cos A)(1 - \sin A \cos A) \] Substituting this back gives: \[ \sin A + \cos A + \frac{(\sin A + \cos A)(1 - \sin A \cos A)}{\sin A \cos A} \] ### Step 7: Factor out \( \sin A + \cos A \) Now we can factor out \( \sin A + \cos A \): \[ \sin A + \cos A \left(1 + \frac{1 - \sin A \cos A}{\sin A \cos A}\right) \] ### Step 8: Simplify the expression This simplifies to: \[ \sin A + \cos A \left(\frac{\sin A \cos A + 1 - \sin A \cos A}{\sin A \cos A}\right) = \sin A + \cos A \left(\frac{1}{\sin A \cos A}\right) \] ### Final Step: Write the final expression Thus, the final expression simplifies to: \[ \sin A + \cos A \left(\frac{1}{\sin A \cos A}\right) = \sin A + \frac{1}{\sin A} + \frac{1}{\cos A} \] ### Conclusion The expression \( \sin A (1 + \tan A) + \cos A (1 + \cot A) \) simplifies to \( \sec A + \csc A \).
