.
(a)  (tan69° + tan66°)/(1 - tan69°tan66°) = 


             apply the formula  tan(a+b) = 


     = tan(69° + 66°) = tan(135°) = tan(180° + 45°) = 1.     ANSWER




(b)  (sin45°cos15° + sin15°cos45°)/(sin45°cos15° - sin15°cos45°) = 


             apply the formula  sin(a+b) = sin(a)*cos(b) + cos(a)*sin(b)  to the numerator;

             apply the formula  sin(a-b) = sin(a)*cos(b) - cos(a)*sin(b)  to the denominator.


      =  =  =  = .     ANSWER

Solved.
