The value of tan13otan36otan45otan54otan77o2sec260o(sin260o−3cos60o+2)\frac{tan 13^o tan 36^o tan 45^o tan 54^o tan 77^o}{2 sec^2 60^o (sin^2 60^o - 3 cos 60^o +2)}is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 110\frac{1}{10}

= tan13otan36otan45otan54otan77o2sec260o(sin260o−3cos60o+2)\frac{tan 13^o tan 36^o tan 45^o tan 54^o tan 77^o}{2 sec^2 60^o (sin^2 60^o - 3 cos 60^o +2)}

= (tan13 × tan36 × tan45 × cot36 × cot13)/[2 × 4(3/4 - 3/2 + 2)]

= 1/(8(5/4)

= 1/10.
