Homework Statement
I'm attempting to prove that
1 - sin^2 t /(1 + cos t) - cos^2/(1+tan t) = cos t sin t
2. The attempt at a solution
I've tried various approaches. The most promising has the LHS reduced to:
(sin t cos t (1 + cos t + sin t cos t))/((1 + cos t)(cos t + sin t)).
I've also shown numerically that the LHS resembles the RHS so I don't think there was a typo in the original problem.
Thanks!
