Show that $\sqrt{\frac{1+2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}{1-2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}}=\frac{1+\tan\alpha}{\tan\alpha-1}$ Show that $\sqrt{\dfrac{1+2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}{1-2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}}=\dfrac{1+\tan\alpha}{\tan\alpha-1}$ if $\alpha\in\left(45^\circ;90^\circ\right)$.
We have $\sqrt{\dfrac{1+2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}{1-2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sin^2\alpha+2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha+\cos^2\alpha}{\sin^2\alpha-2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha+\cos^2\alpha}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{(\sin\alpha+\cos\alpha)^2}{(\sin\alpha-\cos\alpha)^2}}=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\sin\alpha+\cos\alpha}{\sin\alpha-\cos\alpha}\right)^2}.$
Using the fact that $\sqrt{a^2}=|a|$ the given expression is equal to $\left|\dfrac{\sin\alpha+\cos\alpha}{\sin\alpha-\cos\alpha}\right|.$ I think that in the inverval $\left(45^\circ;90^\circ\right) \sin\alpha>\cos\alpha$ but how can I prove that? What to do next?

$\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha$ and $\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha$ are both positive in the given domain, so their quotient is also positive, and $|x| = x$ when $x \in \mathbb R^+$. $\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha > 0$ as $\sin \alpha, \cos \alpha$ are positive in the domain. Hence we can focus our attention to just proving $\sin \alpha > \cos \alpha$.
Divide both sides by $\cos \alpha$. Since it is positive in the given interval, the inequality does not change sign.
Thus you have $\tan \alpha > 1$, which is true because $\tan 45º = 1$ and $\tan x$ is a strictly increasing function in the given range $(45º, 90º)$. This is already sufficient as a justification, but on some insight as to why this is, $\tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}$, and $\sin x$ is increasing while $\cos x$ is decreasing in the given interval, which both increase the value of the function. Anything more rigorous has to involve a geometric argument with the unit circle or calculus.
