The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \[ \sqrt{\frac{1 - \sin^2 60^\circ}{1 - \cos^2 60^\circ}} \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the Pythagorean Identity We know that \[ \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \] From this identity, we can express \(1 - \sin^2 60^\circ\) and \(1 - \cos^2 60^\circ\). ### Step 2: Calculate \(1 - \sin^2 60^\circ\) Using the identity, we have: \[ 1 - \sin^2 60^\circ = \cos^2 60^\circ \] ### Step 3: Calculate \(1 - \cos^2 60^\circ\) Similarly, we can express: \[ 1 - \cos^2 60^\circ = \sin^2 60^\circ \] ### Step 4: Substitute these values into the expression Now substituting these values into the original expression gives us: \[ \sqrt{\frac{\cos^2 60^\circ}{\sin^2 60^\circ}} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression This simplifies to: \[ \sqrt{\left(\frac{\cos 60^\circ}{\sin 60^\circ}\right)^2} \] ### Step 6: Remove the square root The square root and the square cancel each other out, so we have: \[ \frac{\cos 60^\circ}{\sin 60^\circ} \] ### Step 7: Recognize the trigonometric function This expression is equal to: \[ \cot 60^\circ \] ### Step 8: Calculate \(\cot 60^\circ\) We know that: \[ \cot 60^\circ = \frac{1}{\tan 60^\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of the original expression is: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] ---
