drag inceases lift.

Look at the AoA chart. If the wings AoA increases, then our lift co-efficient increases and so does our drag coefficient.

If we add drag, then our wing will change angle of attack to compensate because it requires more power. Our lift coefficient will increase.

The relationship of lift to drag is fixed by design.
