The correct Answer is:
To find the value of the product \( \cos 1^\circ \cdot \cos 2^\circ \cdot \cos 3^\circ \cdots \cos 89^\circ \cdots \cos 179^\circ \cdot \cos 180^\circ \), we can break down the problem step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the range of angles The product consists of cosines from \( \cos 1^\circ \) to \( \cos 180^\circ \). Notably, \( \cos 180^\circ = -1 \). ### Step 2: Pair the cosines We can pair the cosines symmetrically around \( 90^\circ \): - \( \cos 1^\circ \) pairs with \( \cos 179^\circ \) - \( \cos 2^\circ \) pairs with \( \cos 178^\circ \) - ... - \( \cos 89^\circ \) pairs with \( \cos 91^\circ \) ### Step 3: Use the cosine identity Using the identity \( \cos(180^\circ - x) = -\cos x \), we can see that: - \( \cos 1^\circ \cdot \cos 179^\circ = \cos 1^\circ \cdot (-\cos 1^\circ) = -\cos^2 1^\circ \) - \( \cos 2^\circ \cdot \cos 178^\circ = \cos 2^\circ \cdot (-\cos 2^\circ) = -\cos^2 2^\circ \) - ... - \( \cos 89^\circ \cdot \cos 91^\circ = \cos 89^\circ \cdot (-\cos 89^\circ) = -\cos^2 89^\circ \) ### Step 4: Include \( \cos 90^\circ \) Since \( \cos 90^\circ = 0 \), the entire product will be zero because multiplying by zero results in zero. ### Conclusion Thus, the value of the product \( \cos 1^\circ \cdot \cos 2^\circ \cdot \cos 3^\circ \cdots \cos 89^\circ \cdots \cos 179^\circ \cdot \cos 180^\circ \) is: \[ \boxed{0} \]
