Final Answer

The equation is not an identity

Step-by-step Solution

Specify the solving method

1

The angles where the function $\tan\left(x\right)$ is $1$ are

$x=45^{\circ}+360^{\circ}n,\:x=225^{\circ}+360^{\circ}n$
2

There is no identity or mathematical rule that allows us to proceed trying to match both sides of the equality, so we conclude that it is not true

The equation is not an identity
