The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \( \tan(55^\circ - A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the cotangent term We know that: \[ \cot(90^\circ - \theta) = \tan(\theta) \] Using this identity, we can rewrite \( \cot(35^\circ + A) \): \[ \cot(35^\circ + A) = \tan(90^\circ - (35^\circ + A)) = \tan(55^\circ - A) \] ### Step 2: Substitute the cotangent term into the expression Now, we can substitute this back into our original expression: \[ \tan(55^\circ - A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) = \tan(55^\circ - A) - \tan(55^\circ - A) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the expression Now, we can simplify the expression: \[ \tan(55^\circ - A) - \tan(55^\circ - A) = 0 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of the expression \( \tan(55^\circ - A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) \) is: \[ \boxed{0} \]
