If $4 \theta$ is an acute angle, and $\cot 4 \theta = \tan(\theta - 5^\circ)$ is an acute angle, and $\cot 46 = \tan(6 - 5^\circ)$, then what is the value of $\theta$?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
We are given that ,
cot 4θ = tan ( θ - 5º )
{ using, tanA = cot B Iff A + B = 90º }
So, 4θ + θ - 5º = 95º
5θ = 95º
θ = 19º
