prove (sin(2x))/(1-sin^2(x))=2tan(x)

prove

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{1 - sin ^{2} ( x )} = 2 tan (x)

True

Solution steps

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{1 - sin ^{2} ( x )} = 2 tan (x)

Manipulating left side

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{1 - sin ^{2} ( x )}

Rewrite using trig identities

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{1 - sin ^{2} ( x )}

Use the Double Angle identity:

sin (2 x) = 2 sin (x) cos (x)

= \frac{2 sin ( x ) cos ( x )}{1 - sin ^{2} ( x )}

Use the Pythagorean identity:

1 = cos^{2} (x) + sin^{2} (x)

1 - sin^{2} (x) = cos^{2} (x)

= \frac{2 sin ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (x)

= \frac{2 sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{2 sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Rewrite using trig identities

= 2 \cdot \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

\frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = tan (x)

2 tan (x)

2 tan (x)

We showed that the two sides could take the same form

\Rightarrow True
