Answer
Since, $\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}\big(\text{f(x)}+\text{f}(\text{x})\big)\text{dx}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}\text{ f}(\text{x})+\text{C}$
We can write the expression as
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\tan\text{x}+1)\sec\text{x dx}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}\text{ f}(\text{x})+\text{C}$
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{f}(\text{x})\text{e}^{\text{x}}+\text{C}$
Comparing with equation $\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{f}(\text{x})\text{e}^{\text{x}}+\text{C}$ with standard equation we have
$\text{f(x)}=\sec\text{x},\text{f}'(\text{x})=\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}$
Therefore,
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}\sec\text{x}+\text{C}$
Thus, $\text{f(x)}=\sec\text{x}$
We can write the expression as
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\tan\text{x}+1)\sec\text{x dx}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}\text{ f}(\text{x})+\text{C}$
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{f}(\text{x})\text{e}^{\text{x}}+\text{C}$
Comparing with equation $\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{f}(\text{x})\text{e}^{\text{x}}+\text{C}$ with standard equation we have
$\text{f(x)}=\sec\text{x},\text{f}'(\text{x})=\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}$
Therefore,
$\int\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\sec\text{x}+\tan\text{x}\sec\text{x})\text{dx}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}\sec\text{x}+\text{C}$
Thus, $\text{f(x)}=\sec\text{x}$
