Question:

Find the value of \(\frac{cos^225°\;+\;cos^265°}{sin^290°}\) - tan245° + cot230°

Options:

0

1

2

3

Correct Answer:

3

Explanation:

Formula → [cos2A + cos2B = 1, when A + B = 90°]

Here, (25° + 65° = 90°), therefore,

⇒ \(\frac{cos^225°\;+\;cos^265°}{sin^290°}\) - tan245° + cot230°

= \(\frac{1}{1}\) - 1 + (\(\sqrt {3}\))2

= 1 - 1 + 3 = 3
