The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \((\sin 35^\circ)/(\cos 55^\circ) + (\sec 20^\circ)/(\csc 70^\circ)\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the trigonometric functions We know that: - \(\cos(90^\circ - \theta) = \sin(\theta)\) - \(\sec(\theta) = \frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}\) - \(\csc(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sin(\theta)}\) Using these identities, we can rewrite the expression. ### Step 2: Simplify \(\sin 35^\circ\) and \(\cos 55^\circ\) Notice that: \[ \cos 55^\circ = \sin(90^\circ - 55^\circ) = \sin 35^\circ \] Thus, we can rewrite the first part of the expression: \[ \frac{\sin 35^\circ}{\cos 55^\circ} = \frac{\sin 35^\circ}{\sin 35^\circ} = 1 \] ### Step 3: Simplify \(\sec 20^\circ\) and \(\csc 70^\circ\) Now, let's simplify the second part: \[ \sec 20^\circ = \frac{1}{\cos 20^\circ} \] And since: \[ \csc 70^\circ = \frac{1}{\sin 70^\circ} = \frac{1}{\cos(90^\circ - 70^\circ)} = \frac{1}{\cos 20^\circ} \] Thus, we can rewrite the second part of the expression: \[ \frac{\sec 20^\circ}{\csc 70^\circ} = \frac{\frac{1}{\cos 20^\circ}}{\frac{1}{\cos 20^\circ}} = 1 \] ### Step 4: Combine the results Now we can combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3: \[ 1 + 1 = 2 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of the expression \((\sin 35^\circ)/(\cos 55^\circ) + (\sec 20^\circ)/(\csc 70^\circ)\) is \(2\). ---
