Question
Can you help me simplify (1 + tanx)/(1 + cotx)?

Answer
(1 + tan(x))/(1 + cot(x))
(1 + (sin(x)/cos(x)))/(1 + (cos(x)/sin(x)))
((cos(x) + sin(x))/cos(x)) / ((sin(x) + cos(x))/sin(x))
((cos(x) + sin(x))/cos(x)) * (sin(x)/(sin(x) + cos(x)))
(sin(x)(cos(x) + sin(x))) / (cos(x)(cos(x) + sin(x)))
sin(x)/cos(x)

ANS : tan(x)
