In a ΔABC right - angled at C, if tan A =√3, then the value of sin A cos B cot(A + B) is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 0.
tan A = √3
⇒ tan A = tan 60°
⇒ A = 60°
So,
⇒ sin A = sin 60° =
⇒ cos A = cos 60° =
Since, A + B = 90° because C = 90 so,
⇒ B = 90° - A
⇒ B = 90° - 60°
⇒ B = 30°
Now,
⇒ sin B = sin 30° =
⇒ cos B = cos 30° =
Since, A + B = 90°
⇒ cot(A + B) = cot 90° = 0
So, the value of sin A cos B cot(A + B)
⇒ × × 0 = 0
