Simplify the fraction with numerator cosine of 2 x and denominator cosine of x minus sine of x

Use the identity cos(2x) = cos²x − sin²x = (cos x − sin x)(cos x + sin x). Dividing by cos x − sin x cancels that factor, leaving cos x + sin x (where the original denominator is nonzero). This matches choice D.
