The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate \( \sin M \times \cot N \) where \( M = 60^\circ \) and \( N = 30^\circ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the values of sin and cot**: - We know that \( \sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \). - We also need to find \( \cot 30^\circ \). 2. **Calculate \( \cot 30^\circ \)**: - Recall that \( \cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta} \). - We know that \( \tan 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \). - Therefore, \( \cot 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\tan 30^\circ} = \sqrt{3} \). 3. **Substitute the values into the expression**: - Now we substitute the values we found into the expression: \[ \sin M \times \cot N = \sin 60^\circ \times \cot 30^\circ = \left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right) \times \sqrt{3} \] 4. **Perform the multiplication**: - Multiply the two fractions: \[ \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times \sqrt{3} = \frac{\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{3}{2} \] 5. **Final answer**: - Therefore, the value of \( \sin M \times \cot N \) is \( \frac{3}{2} \). ### Conclusion: The answer is \( \frac{3}{2} \), which corresponds to option C. ---
