$\frac{\sin (x)}{\cos (x)} + \frac{\cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$

Step 1

Convert from $\frac{\sin (x)}{\cos (x)}$ to $\tan (x)$ .

$\tan (x) + \frac{\cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$

Step 2

To write $\tan (x)$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{1 + \sin (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$ .

$\frac{\tan (x) (1 + \sin (x))}{1 + \sin (x)} + \frac{\cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$

Step 3

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{\tan (x) (1 + \sin (x)) + \cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$

Step 4

Simplify the numerator.

Step 4.1

Apply the distributive property.

$\frac{\tan (x) \cdot 1 + \tan (x) \sin (x) + \cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$

Step 4.2

Multiply $\tan (x)$ by $1$ .

$\frac{\tan (x) + \tan (x) \sin (x) + \cos (x)}{1 + \sin (x)}$
