    I assume you mean (1 + tan^2u) (1 - sin^2u) = 1 so I solved it like that

    because tanu = sinu / cosu ⇒ tan^2u = sin^2u / con^2u

    (1 + sin^2u/cos^2u) (1 - sin^2u) =

    (cos^2u/cos^2u + sin^2u/cos^2u) (1 - sin^2u) =

    ((cos^2u + sin^2u) / (cos^2u)) (1 - sin^2u) =

    and because cos^2u + sin^2u = 1 we'll have

    (1 / (cos^2u)) (1 - sin^2u) =

    1 / (cos^2u) - sin^2u / (cos^2u) =

    (1 - sin^2u) / (cos^2u) =

    notice that 1 - sin^2u is equal to cos^2u

    cos^2u / cos^2u = 1
