To prove the equation \[ \frac{(\sin \theta+\cos \theta)^{2}}{\cos \theta}-\frac{1}{\cos \theta}=2 \cdot \sin \theta, \] let's start by simplifying the left-hand side: 1. Expand \((\sin \theta + \cos \theta)^2\): \[ (\sin \theta + \cos \theta)^2 = \sin^2 \theta + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta, \] since \(\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1\). 2. Substitute this into the expression: \[ \frac{(\sin \theta + \cos \theta)^2}{\cos \theta} - \frac{1}{\cos \theta} = \frac{1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta}{\cos \theta} - \frac{1}{\cos \theta}. \] 3. Combine the fractions: \[ = \frac{1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta - 1}{\cos \theta} = \frac{2\sin \theta \cos \theta}{\cos \theta}. \] 4. Simplify the expression: \[ = 2\sin \theta. \] Thus, we confirm that \[ \frac{(\sin \theta+\cos \theta)^{2}}{\cos \theta}-\frac{1}{\cos \theta}=2 \cdot \sin \theta. \] Hence, the statement is proven.
