(a) $2(\tan\beta+\tan\gamma)$
(b) $\tan\beta+\tan\gamma$
(c) $\tan\beta+2\tan\gamma$
(d) $2\tan\beta+\tan\gamma$

Correct answer: (d) $2\tan\beta+\tan\gamma$

From the two relations $\alpha=\frac\pi4+\frac\gamma2$ and $\beta=\frac\pi4-\frac\gamma2$; substituting and simplifying yields $\tan\alpha=2\tan\beta+\tan\gamma$.
