The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the expression given in the question step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) Given that \( a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n \) are in A.P. with a common difference \( d \), we can express the terms as: - \( a_1 = a \) - \( a_2 = a + d \) - \( a_3 = a + 2d \) - ... - \( a_n = a + (n-1)d \) ### Step 2: Writing the Expression We need to evaluate: \[ \sin d \left[ \csc a_1 \csc a_2 + \csc a_2 \csc a_3 + \ldots + \csc a_{n-1} \csc a_n \right] \] ### Step 3: Expanding the Terms Using the definition of cosecant, we have: \[ \csc a_i = \frac{1}{\sin a_i} \] Thus, the expression becomes: \[ \sin d \left[ \frac{1}{\sin a_1 \sin a_2} + \frac{1}{\sin a_2 \sin a_3} + \ldots + \frac{1}{\sin a_{n-1} \sin a_n} \right] \] ### Step 4: Applying the Sine Difference Formula We can use the identity: \[ \sin(a - b) = \sin a \cos b - \cos a \sin b \] to express the terms. Specifically, we can write: \[ \sin d = \sin(a_2 - a_1) = \sin a_2 \cos a_1 - \cos a_2 \sin a_1 \] ### Step 5: Simplifying the Terms Now, substituting back into our expression: \[ \sin d \left[ \frac{\sin(a_2 - a_1)}{\sin a_1 \sin a_2} + \frac{\sin(a_3 - a_2)}{\sin a_2 \sin a_3} + \ldots \right] \] This can be rewritten as: \[ \sin d \left[ \frac{\sin a_2 \cos a_1 - \cos a_2 \sin a_1}{\sin a_1 \sin a_2} + \ldots \right] \] ### Step 6: Cancellation of Terms Notice that in the series, many terms will cancel out: - The \( \sin a_2 \) in the numerator of one term will cancel with the \( \sin a_2 \) in the denominator of the next term. ### Step 7: Final Result After all cancellations, we will be left with: \[ \cot a_1 - \cot a_n \] Thus, the final expression simplifies to: \[ \sin d \left( \cot a_1 - \cot a_n \right) \] ### Conclusion The final result of the given expression is: \[ \sin d \left( \cot a_1 - \cot a_n \right) \]
