We need to prove -
\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}= cosec A+\cot A

Dividing the numerator and denominator by \sin A, we get;

\\=\frac{\cot A-1+\csc A}{\cot A +1-\csc A}\\\\= \frac{(\cot A+\csc A)-(\csc^2 A-\cot^2A)}{\cot A +1-\csc A}\\\\= \frac{(\csc A+\cot A)(1-\csc A+\cot A)}{\cot A +1-\csc A}\\\\= \csc A+\cot A\\\\ =RHS

Hence Proved.
