Express sin 74° + tan 74° in terms of trigonometric ratios of angles between 0° and 45°.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. cos 16° + cot 16°.
sin(90° - A) = cos A and tan(90° - A) = cot A
Hence, sin 74° = cos 16° and tan 74° = cot 16°
Therefore, sin 74° + tan 74° = cos 16° + cot 16°
