We will use the fact that since tangent and cotangent are
reciprocals, that their product equals 1:



Indicate 1's multiplied by the terms on top:



Substitute the products of a tangent by a cotangent
for the 1's: 



Erase the unnecessary parentheses: 



Factor tanA*cotB out if the numerator:



Cancel the tanB+cotA's
