Explanation:
sec theta = 1/ cos theta
color(white)(sec theta) = 1/ cos theta * (1+tan theta)/(tan theta + 1)
color(white)(sec theta) = (1+tan theta)/(cos theta (tan theta + 1))
color(white)(sec theta) = (1+tan theta)/(cos theta (sin theta / cos theta + 1))
color(white)(sec theta) = (1 + tan theta) / (sin theta + cos theta)
