(viii) (sin72° + cos 18°)(sin 72° - cos 18° )

Solution

We have to find : (sin 72° + cos 18°)( sin 72° - cos 18° )
Since sin(90°- θ) = cosθ . So
(sin72° + cos 18°)(sin 72° - cos 18°) = (sin 72°)2 – (cos 18°)2
= [sin(90° - 18°)]2 - (cos 18°)2
= (cos 18°)2 - (cos 18°)2
= cos2 18° - cos2 18° 
So value of (sin 72° + cos 18°) (sin 72° + cos 18°) is 0 .

(ix) sin 35° sin 55°- cos 35° cos 55°

Solution

We find : sin 35° sin 55°- cos 35° cos 55°
Since sin (90° - θ) = cos θ and cos (90°- θ) = sin θ
sin 35° sin 55° - cos 35° cos55° = sin (90°- 55°)sin 55° - cos(90°- 55°) cos 55°
= cos 55° sin 55° - sin 55° cos 55°
= 1 – 1
= 0
So value of sin 35° sin 55° - cos 35° cos 55° is 0.

(x) tan 48° tan 23° tan 42° tan 67°

Solution

We have to find tan 48° tan 23° tan × 42° tan 67°
Since tan (90° - θ) = cot θ . So
tan 48° tan 23° tan 42° tan 67° = tan(90° - 67°) tan 42° tan 67°
= cot 42° cot 67° tan 42° tan 67°
= (tan 67°cot 67°) (tan 42° cot 42°)
= 1×1
= 1
So value of tan 48° tan 23° tan 42° tan 67° is 1 .

(xi) sec 50° sin 40° + cos 40° cosec 50°  

Solution

We find to find sec 50° sin 40° + cos 40° cosec 50° 
Since cos (90°- θ) = sin θ, sec(90°- θ) = cosec θ and sin θ cosec θ = 1. So
sec 50° sin 40° + cos 40° cosec 50° = sec(90° - 40°) sin 40° + cos(90° - 50°) cosec 50°
= cosec 40° sin 40° + sin 50° cosec 50°
= 1 + 1
= 2
So value of sec 50° sin 40° + cos 40° cosec 50° is 2.

3. Express each one of the following in terms of trigonometric ratios of angles lying between 0° and 45°.

(i) Sin 59° + cos 56°

Solution

sin 59° = sin(90°-31°) = cos 31°
cos 56° = cos (90° -34°) = sin 34°
⇒ cos 31° + sin 34°

(ii) Tan 65° + cot 49°  

Solution

tan 65° = tan (90°-25°) cot 25°
cot 49° = cot(90°-41°) tan 41°
⇒ cot 25° + tan 41°

(iii) Sec 76° + cosec 52°

Solution

sec 76° = sec(90°-14°) = cosec 14°
cosec 52° = cosec(90°-88°) =  sec 38°
⇒ cosec 14° + sec 38°

(iv) Cos 78° + sec 78°

Solution

cos 78° = cos (90°-12°) = sin 12°
sec 78° = sec(90°-12°) = cosec 12°
⇒ sin 12° + cosec 12°

(v)  Cosec 54° + sin 72°

Solution

cosec 54° = cosec (90°-36°) = sec 36°
sin 72° = sin (90°-18°) cos 18°
⇒ sec 36° + cos 18°

(vi) Cot 85° + cos 75° 

Solution

cot 85° = cot (90°-5°) = tan 5°
cos 75° = cos (90°-15°) = sin 15°
tan 5° + sin 15°

(vii) Sin 67° + cos 75°

Solution

sin 67° = sin (90°-23°) = cos 23°
cos 75° = cos(90° - 15°) = sin 15°
= cos 23° + sin 15°

4. Express Cos 75° + cot 75° in terms of angles between 0° and 30°.

Solution

cot 75° = cos (90°-15°) = sin 15°
cot 75° = cot (90° 15°) = tan 15°
= sin 15° + tan 15°
