If your expression mean:
1 / (1 - cos θ ) + 1 / ( 1 + cos θ )
then
1 / (1 - cos θ ) + 1 / ( 1 + cos (θ) =
[ 1 ∙ ( 1 + cos θ ) + 1 ∙ ( 1 - cos θ ) ] / [ (1 - cos θ ) ∙ ( 1 + cos θ ) ] =
( 1 + cos θ + 1 - cos θ ) / ( 1 - cos² θ ) =
2 / sin² θ
________________________________________________
Remark:
( a - b ) ∙ ( a + b ) = a ² - b²
so
[ (1 - cos θ ) ∙ ( 1 + cos θ ) ] = 1² - cos² θ = 1 - cos² θ = sin² θ

Simplify leaving your answer in terms of sin0(titha)
1 /1-cos0(titha) + 1 /1+cos0(titha)?
