Evaluate each of the following: `cot 12^@cot 38^@cot52^@cot60^@cot78^@`
`tan5^@tan25^@tan30^@tan65^@tan85^@`

A

`sqrt(3)`

B

`(1)/(sqrt(3))`

C

1

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Given expression `=(tan5^(@)tan85^(@))(tan25^(@)tan65^(@))tan30^(@)`
`={tan5^(@)*tan(90^(@)-5^(@))}{tan25^(@)*tan(90^(@)-25^(@))}*tan30^(@)`
`=(tan5^(@)*cot5^(@))(tan25^(@)*cot25^(@))*(1)/(sqrt(3))=1xx1xx(1)/(sqrt(3))=(1)/(sqrt(3)).`
