The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \(\frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{1 + \cos A \cos B \cos C}\) given that \(\cot A + \cot B + \cot C = \cot \theta\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Start with the given equation**: \[ \cot A + \cot B + \cot C = \cot \theta \] 2. **Use the identity for cotangent**: Recall that \(\cot A = \frac{\cos A}{\sin A}\). Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \frac{\cos A}{\sin A} + \frac{\cos B}{\sin B} + \frac{\cos C}{\sin C} = \cot \theta \] 3. **Combine the cotangent terms**: The left-hand side can be combined into a single fraction: \[ \frac{\cos A \sin B \sin C + \cos B \sin A \sin C + \cos C \sin A \sin B}{\sin A \sin B \sin C} = \cot \theta \] 4. **Cross-multiply**: This gives us: \[ \cos A \sin B \sin C + \cos B \sin A \sin C + \cos C \sin A \sin B = \cot \theta \cdot \sin A \sin B \sin C \] 5. **Rearranging the equation**: We can express the left-hand side as: \[ 1 + \cos A \cos B \cos C = \frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{\cot \theta} \] 6. **Substituting back into the original expression**: Now we need to find: \[ \frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{1 + \cos A \cos B \cos C} \] 7. **Using the derived equation**: Substitute the expression we derived: \[ \frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{\cot \theta \cdot \sin A \sin B \sin C} = \frac{1}{\cot \theta} \] 8. **Final simplification**: Since \(\frac{1}{\cot \theta} = \tan \theta\), we conclude that: \[ \frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{1 + \cos A \cos B \cos C} = \tan \theta \] ### Final Answer: \[ \frac{\sin A \sin B \sin C}{1 + \cos A \cos B \cos C} = \tan \theta \]
