The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \( \sin 10^\circ \sec 80^\circ + 4 \tan 45^\circ \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the components of the expression We have two parts in the expression: \( \sin 10^\circ \sec 80^\circ \) and \( 4 \tan 45^\circ \). ### Step 2: Simplify \( \tan 45^\circ \) We know that: \[ \tan 45^\circ = 1 \] Thus, we can simplify the second part of the expression: \[ 4 \tan 45^\circ = 4 \times 1 = 4 \] ### Step 3: Rewrite \( \sec 80^\circ \) We can use the identity \( \sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} \) to rewrite \( \sec 80^\circ \): \[ \sec 80^\circ = \frac{1}{\cos 80^\circ} \] ### Step 4: Use the co-function identity We know from trigonometric identities that: \[ \cos 80^\circ = \sin (90^\circ - 80^\circ) = \sin 10^\circ \] Thus, we can rewrite \( \sec 80^\circ \): \[ \sec 80^\circ = \frac{1}{\sin 10^\circ} \] ### Step 5: Substitute back into the expression Now we can substitute \( \sec 80^\circ \) back into the expression: \[ \sin 10^\circ \sec 80^\circ = \sin 10^\circ \cdot \frac{1}{\sin 10^\circ} = 1 \] ### Step 6: Combine the results Now we can combine the results from Step 2 and Step 5: \[ \sin 10^\circ \sec 80^\circ + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of the expression \( \sin 10^\circ \sec 80^\circ + 4 \tan 45^\circ \) is: \[ \boxed{5} \]
