Because

<math>\tan v=\frac{\sin v}{\cos v}</math>, the left-hand side can be written using

<math>\cos v</math>

as the common denominator:
 +
 
 +
 
 +
<math>\frac{1}{\cos v}-\tan v=\frac{1}{\cos v}-\frac{\sin v}{\cos v}=\frac{\text{1-}\sin v}{\cos v}</math>
 +

 +
Now, we observe that if we multiply top and bottom by with

<math>\begin{align}

& =\frac{\cos ^{2}v}{\cos v\left( 1+\sin v \right)}. \\

Because tanv=sinvcosv, the left-hand side can be written using cosv as the common denominator:


1cosvtanv=1cosvsinvcosv=cosv1-sinv


Now, we observe that if we multiply top and bottom by with 1+sinv, the denominator will contain the denominator of the right-hand side as a factor and, in addition, the numerator can be simplified to give 1sin2v =cos2v, using the conjugate rule:


cosv1-sinv=cosv1-sinv1+sinv1+sinv=1sin2vcosv1+sinv=cos2vcosv1+sinv


Eliminating cosv then gives the answer:


cos2vcosv1+sinv=cosv1+sinv
