Shown below...

Explanation:

Use our trig identities...

sin2x+cos2x=1

sin2xcos2x+cos2xcos2x=1cos2x

tan2x+1=1cos2x

Factor the left side of your problem...

sin2x(1+tan2x)

sin2x(1cos2x)=sin2xcos2x

(sinxcosx)2=tan2x

Given,

sin2x+tan2xsin2x

=sin2x(1+tan2x)

=sin2xsec2x (as,sec2xtan2x=1)

=sin2x(1cos2x)

=tan2x
