    (1 + cscx) / cosx+cotx = (1+cscx) / (cosx+cosx/sinx)

    = (1+cscx) / cosx (1+1/sinx)

    = (1+cscx) / cosx (1+cscx)

    = 1/cosx

    = secx

    (1+cscx) / (cos x + cot x)

    As cosec x is the inverse of sinx

    csc x = 1/sinx,

    and cotx is the ratio of cosx and sinx

    cotx = cosx/sinx

    (1+cscx) / (cos x + cot x)

    (1 + 1/sinx) / (cosx + cosx/sinx)

    BY taking LCM:

    (sinx + 1) / sinx * [ (sinxcosx + cosx) / sinx]

    (sinx + 1) / (sinxcosx + cosx)

    Taking cosx as common:

    = (sinx + 1) / cosx * (sinx + 1)

    = 1 / cosx is the answer
