Question

What is the value of the following expression?
(tan 2°tan 88°) (tan 3° tan 87°).....(tan 43° tan47°) tan 45°

A.

0

B.


C.

1

D.

–1

Correct option is C

Given:
(tan 2°tan 88°) (tan 3° tan 87°).....(tan 43° tan47°) tan 45°
Concept used:
complementary angles:
tanx×tan(90x)=1\tan x \times \tan (90^\circ - x) = 1​ 
 tan45=1\tan 45^\circ = 1​  
Solution:
Each pair (tan2tan88)(tan3tan87)...(tan43tan47)(\tan 2^\circ \tan 88^\circ) (\tan 3^\circ \tan 87^\circ)...(\tan 43^\circ \tan 47^\circ) forms the complementary angles , So;
the value of each pair is  1. 
So the value of expression is: 
1×1××tan45=11 \times 1 \times \dots \times \tan 45^\circ = \bf 1​
