The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( \csc 430^\circ + \sqrt{3} \sec 470^\circ \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the expression in terms of sine and cosine The cosecant and secant functions can be rewritten as: \[ \csc 430^\circ = \frac{1}{\sin 430^\circ} \quad \text{and} \quad \sec 470^\circ = \frac{1}{\cos 470^\circ} \] Thus, the expression becomes: \[ \frac{1}{\sin 430^\circ} + \sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos 470^\circ} \] ### Step 2: Simplify the angles Since the angles are greater than 360 degrees, we can reduce them: \[ 430^\circ - 360^\circ = 70^\circ \quad \text{and} \quad 470^\circ - 360^\circ = 110^\circ \] So, we can rewrite the expression as: \[ \frac{1}{\sin 70^\circ} + \sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos 110^\circ} \] ### Step 3: Use the identity for cosine We know that: \[ \cos 110^\circ = \cos(180^\circ - 70^\circ) = -\cos 70^\circ \] Thus, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{1}{\sin 70^\circ} - \sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos 70^\circ} \] ### Step 4: Combine the fractions Now we can combine the two terms over a common denominator: \[ \frac{1 \cdot \cos 70^\circ - \sqrt{3} \cdot \sin 70^\circ}{\sin 70^\circ \cos 70^\circ} \] ### Step 5: Rewrite the denominator Using the double angle identity, we know: \[ \sin 2\theta = 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta \] Thus, we can write: \[ \sin 70^\circ \cos 70^\circ = \frac{1}{2} \sin 140^\circ \] So our expression becomes: \[ \frac{\cos 70^\circ - \sqrt{3} \sin 70^\circ}{\frac{1}{2} \sin 140^\circ} = \frac{2(\cos 70^\circ - \sqrt{3} \sin 70^\circ)}{\sin 140^\circ} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the numerator We can express the numerator in terms of sine: \[ \cos 70^\circ - \sqrt{3} \sin 70^\circ = 2 \left( \frac{1}{2} \cos 70^\circ - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \sin 70^\circ \right) \] This can be recognized as: \[ 2 \sin\left(70^\circ - 30^\circ\right) = 2 \sin 40^\circ \] Thus, the expression simplifies to: \[ \frac{2 \cdot 2 \sin 40^\circ}{\sin 140^\circ} \] ### Step 7: Use the identity for sine Since \( \sin 140^\circ = \sin(180^\circ - 40^\circ) = \sin 40^\circ \): \[ \frac{4 \sin 40^\circ}{\sin 40^\circ} = 4 \] ### Final Result Thus, the value of the expression \( \csc 430^\circ + \sqrt{3} \sec 470^\circ \) is: \[ \boxed{4} \]
