(vi) 4sinx cosx + 2 sin x + 2 cosx + 1 = 0
(vii) cosx + sin x = cos 2x + sin 2x
(viii) sin x tan x – 1 = tan x – sin x
(ix) 3tanx + cot x = 5 cosec x

(i)
$\mathrm{cot}x+\mathrm{tan}x=2\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒\frac{1}{\mathrm{tan}x}+\mathrm{tan}x=2\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒{\mathrm{tan}}^{2}x+1=2\mathrm{tan}x\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒{\mathrm{tan}}^{2}x-2\mathrm{tan}x+1=0\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒{\left(\mathrm{tan}x-1\right)}^{2}=0$

$⇒\frac{\mathrm{tan}\left(x+15°\right)}{\mathrm{tan}\left(x-15°\right)}=3$

Applying componendo and dividendo, we have

$\frac{\mathrm{tan}\left(x+15°\right)+\mathrm{tan}\left(x-15°\right)}{\mathrm{tan}\left(x+15°\right)-\mathrm{tan}\left(x-15°\right)}=\frac{3+1}{3-1}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒\frac{\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°\right)}{\mathrm{cos}\left(x+15°\right)}+\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x-15°\right)}{\mathrm{cos}\left(x-15°\right)}}{\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°\right)}{\mathrm{cos}\left(x+15°\right)}-\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x-15°\right)}{\mathrm{cos}\left(x-15°\right)}}=\frac{4}{2}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°\right)\mathrm{cos}\left(x-15°\right)+\mathrm{cos}\left(x+15°\right)\mathrm{sin}\left(x-15°\right)}{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°\right)\mathrm{cos}\left(x-15°\right)-\mathrm{cos}\left(x+15°\right)\mathrm{sin}\left(x-15°\right)}=2\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}⇒\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°+x-15°\right)}{\mathrm{sin}\left(x+15°-x+15°\right)}=2$
