(In reply to solution by Ady TZIDON)

But an error still occurs at



sin(c)+cos(c)+ tan(c)>1+2c-(.5*c^2+2(c^3)/6)=1+2c-d

d is a positive value ,

so sin(c)+cos(c)+ tan(c)>1+2c

You have said that after subtracting a positive value from the RHS, that the LHS exceeds it. But you're using merely that fact to claim that even before you've subtracted the positive value from the RHS, that even then the LHS exceeded it.  That is not necessarily the case.
