If 2tanA=3tanB then prove that,
tan(A+B)= 5sin2B/5cos2B-1

By definition of tangent,

tan(A + B) = sin(A + B) / cos(A + B)

Using the angle sum identities for sine and cosine,

sin(x + y) = sin(x) cos(y) + cos(x) sin(y)

cos(x + y) = cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)

yields

tan(A + B) = (sin(A) cos(B) + cos(A) sin(B)) / (cos(A) cos(B) - sin(A) sin(B))

Multiplying the right side by 1/(cos(A) cos(B)) uniformly gives

tan(A + B) = (tan(A) + tan(B)) / (1 - tan(A) tan(B))

Since 2 tan(A) = 3 tan(B), it follows that

tan(A + B) = (3/2 tan(B) + tan(B)) / (1 - 3/2 tan²(B))

… = 5 tan(B) / (2 - 3 tan²(B))

Putting everything back in terms of sin and cos gives

tan(A + B) = (5 sin(B)/cos(B)) / (2 - 3 sin²(B)/cos²(B))

Multiplying uniformly by cos²(B) gives

tan(A + B) = 5 sin(B) cos(B) / (2 cos²(B) - 3 sin²(B))

Recall the double angle identities for sin and cos:

sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)

cos(2x) = cos²(x) - sin²(x)

and multiplying uniformly by 2, we find that

tan(A + B) = 10 sin(B) cos(B) / (4 cos²(B) - 6 sin²(B))

… = 10 sin(B) cos(B) / (4 (cos²(B) - sin²(B)) - 2 sin²(B))

… = 5 sin(2B) / (4 cos(2B) - 2 sin²(B))

The Pythagorean identity,

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

lets us rewrite the double angle identity for cos as

cos(2x) = 1 - 2 sin²(x)

so it follows that

tan(A + B) = 5 sin(2B) / (4 cos(2B) + 1 - 2 sin²(B) - 1)

… = 5 sin(2B) / (4 cos(2B) + cos(2B) - 1)

… = 5 sin(2B) / (4 cos(2B) - 1)

as required.
