    Find the value of the expression[cosec(75° + θ) – sec(15° – θ) – tan(55° + θ) + cot(35° – θ)]
    Question

    Find the value of the expression

    [cosec(75° + θ) – sec(15° – θ) – tan(55° + θ) + cot(35° – θ)]

    A.

    1

    B.

    0

    C.

    -1

    D.

    32\frac{3}{2}​​

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    The expression [cosec(75° + θ) – sec(15° – θ) – tan(55° + θ) + cot(35° – θ)]

    Concept Used: 

    cosec(90° - A) = sec A

    sec(90° - A) = cosec A 

    tan(90° - A) = cot A 

    cot(90° - A) = tan A 

    Solution:

    sec(15° – θ) = cosec(90° - (15° – θ))

    sec(15° – θ) = cosec(90° - 15° + θ)

    sec(15° – θ) = cosec(75° + θ)

    cot(35° – θ) = tan(90° - (35° – θ))

    cot(35° – θ) = tan(90° - 35° + θ)

    cot(35° – θ) = tan(55° + θ)

    Now,

    [cosec(75° + θ) – cosec(75° + θ) – tan(55° + θ) + tan(55° + θ)] = 0 – 0 = 0

    Therefore, the value of the expression is 0.
