%281-+sin%5E2%28theta%29%29+%2F+tan%5E2%28theta%29
use identities: 1-+sin%5E2%28theta%29=cos%5E2%28theta%29 and +tan%5E2%28theta%29=sin%5E2%28theta%29%2Fcos%5E2%28theta%29

cos%5E2%28theta%29%2F%28sin%5E2%28theta%29%2Fcos%5E2%28theta%29%29

cos%5E4%28theta%29%2Fsin%5E2%28theta%29...use identity csc%5E2%28theta%29=1%2Fsin%5E2%28theta%29

cos%5E4%28theta%29csc%5E2%28theta%29
