Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

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 expression using complementary angles We know from trigonometric identities that: \[ \tan(90^\circ - \theta) = \cot(\theta) \] In our case, we can express \( 55^\circ \) as \( 90^\circ - 35^\circ \). Therefore, we can rewrite \( \tan(55^\circ - A) \) as: \[ \tan(90^\circ - 35^\circ - A) = \cot(35^\circ + A) \] ### Step 2: Substitute into the original expression Now, substituting this back into our original expression, we have: \[ \tan(55^\circ - A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) = \cot(35^\circ + A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the expression Since we have \( \cot(35^\circ + A) - \cot(35^\circ + A) \), this simplifies to: \[ 0 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{0} \] ---
