%281-sinx%29%2F%281%2Bsinx%29=%28sec%28x%29-tan%28x%29%29%5E2





%281-sinx%29%2F%281%2Bsinx%29=%28%281-sin%28x%29%29%2F%28cos%28x%29%29%29%5E2


%281-sinx%29%2F%281%2Bsinx%29=%28%281-sin%28x%29%29%5E2%29%2F%28cos%5E2%28x%29%29


%281-sinx%29%2F%281%2Bsinx%29=%28%281-sin%28x%29%29%5E2%29%2F%281-sin%5E2%28x%29%29














%281-sinx%29%2F%281%2Bsinx%29=%281-sin%28x%29%29%2F%281%2Bsin%28x%29%29 \color{green}\checkmark


So the identity is confirmed. Notice how I did NOT alter the left side at all. I only changed the right side.
