It is NOT an identity.





Plot y = (red, the left side) and y = (green, the right side)

Properly expressed on the site your identity to prove is

(1+sin(x))/cos(x)=(sin(x)-cos(x)+1)/(sin(x)+cos(x)+1)

and rendered should appear



Way, way, way too much text to try to put in here, but I tried starting with the right hand side,
and multiplied top and bottom by , worked through some arithmetic, followed the difference of squares, did more steps...,

and came to .

Not really finished, so still more work to do.
