Prove the identity by transforming the left side of the equation to match the right side.Do not manipulate both sides.Work with the left side only!1+𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥1−𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥=𝑐𝑜𝑠(2𝑥)1−𝑠𝑖𝑛(2𝑥)

Seems like there are some missing parentheses (along with a division symbol) Perhaps: (1+tanx)/(1-tanx) = cos(2x)/(1-sin(2x)) ?

If that is the case, try replacing tanx with sinx/cosx, simplify and use other identities to achieve the form on the right.
