Start with the left-hand side:
\(\frac{\cos \theta}{\tan \theta (1 - \sin \theta)} = \frac{\cos \theta}{\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} (1 - \sin \theta)}\)
\(= \frac{\cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta (1 - \sin \theta)}\)
Using the identity \(\cos^2 \theta = 1 - \sin^2 \theta\), we have:
\(= \frac{1 - \sin^2 \theta}{\sin \theta (1 - \sin \theta)}\)
Factor the numerator as a difference of squares:
\(= \frac{(1 - \sin \theta)(1 + \sin \theta)}{\sin \theta (1 - \sin \theta)}\)
Cancel \(1 - \sin \theta\) from the numerator and denominator:
\(= \frac{1 + \sin \theta}{\sin \theta}\)
Split the fraction:
\(= \frac{1}{\sin \theta} + 1\)
This matches the right-hand side, proving the identity.
