Given,

$(\begin{array}{l} {a^2} = \frac{{1 + 2\sin \theta \cos \theta }}{{1 - 2\sin \theta \cos \theta }}\\ \Rightarrow {a^2} = \frac{{si{n^2}\theta + co{s^2}\theta + 2\;sin\theta cos\theta }}{{si{n^2}\theta + co{s^2}\theta - 2sin\theta cos\theta }}\\ \Rightarrow {a^2} = \frac{{{{\left( {sin\theta + cos\theta } \right)}^2}}}{{{{\left( {sin\theta - cos\theta } \right)}^2}}} \end{array})$

$(\Rightarrow a = \frac{{sin\theta + cos\theta }}{{sin\theta - cos\theta }})$       ......(1)

Now consider,

$(\begin{array}{l} \frac{{\frac{1}{a} + 1}}{{\frac{1}{a} - 1}}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{{1 + a}}{{1 - a}} \end{array})$

From (1), we get

$(\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow \frac{{1 + \frac{{sin\theta + cos\theta }}{{sin\theta - cos\theta }}}}{{1 - \frac{{sin\theta + cos\theta }}{{sin\theta - cos\theta }}}}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{{sin\theta - cos\theta + sin\theta + cos\theta }}{{sin\theta - cos\theta - sin\theta - cos\theta }}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{{2sin\theta }}{{ - 2cos\theta }} \end{array})$

$(\Rightarrow - tan\theta \left[ {? tan\theta = \frac{{sin\theta }}{{cos\theta }}} \right])$
