$\frac{\tan^{2} (θ) + 1}{\tan^{2} (θ)}$

Step 1

Apply pythagorean identity.

$\frac{\sec^{2} (θ)}{\tan^{2} (θ)}$

Step 2

Rewrite $\frac{\sec^{2} (θ)}{\tan^{2} (θ)}$ as ${(\frac{\sec (θ)}{\tan (θ)})}^{2}$ .

${(\frac{\sec (θ)}{\tan (θ)})}^{2}$

Step 3

Rewrite $\tan (θ)$ in terms of sines and cosines.

${(\frac{\sec (θ)}{\frac{\sin (θ)}{\cos (θ)}})}^{2}$

Step 4

Rewrite $\sec (θ)$ in terms of sines and cosines.

${(\frac{\frac{1}{\cos (θ)}}{\frac{\sin (θ)}{\cos (θ)}})}^{2}$

Step 5

Multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction to divide by $\frac{\sin (θ)}{\cos (θ)}$ .

${(\frac{1}{\cos (θ)} \cdot \frac{\cos (θ)}{\sin (θ)})}^{2}$
