Question : Find the value of $\frac{\cos 65^{\circ}}{\sin 25^{\circ}}+\frac{5 \sin 19^{\circ}}{\cos 71^{\circ}}-\frac{3 \cos 28^{\circ}}{\sin 62^{\circ}}$.
Option 1: 2
Option 2: 0
Option 3: 1
Option 4: 3
Solution : Given: $\frac{\cos 65^{\circ}}{\sin 25^{\circ}}+\frac{5 \sin 19^{\circ}}{\cos 71^{\circ}}-\frac{3 \cos 28^{\circ}}{\sin 62^{\circ}}$ = $\frac{\cos 65^{\circ}}{\sin (90^\circ-65^{\circ})}+\frac{5 \sin (90^\circ-71^{\circ})}{\cos 71^{\circ}}-\frac{3 \cos 28^{\circ}}{\sin (90^\circ-28^{\circ})}$ = $\frac{\cos 65^{\circ}}{\cos 65^{\circ}}+\frac{5 \cos 71^{\circ}}{\cos 71^{\circ}}-\frac{3 \cos 28^{\circ}}{\cos 28^{\circ}}$ = $1 + 5 - 3$ = $3$ Hence, the correct answer is 3.
Question : If 4$\theta$ is an acute angle, and cot 4$\theta$ = tan($\theta$ – 5°), then what is the value of $\theta$?
Option 1: 19°
Option 2: 45°
Option 3: 21°
Option 4: 24°
Correct Answer: 19°
Solution : According to the question, ⇒ $\cot(4θ) = \tan(θ - 5°)$ ⇒ $\cot(4θ) = \cot(90° - (θ - 5°))$ ⇒ $4θ = 90° - (θ - 5°)$ ⇒ $4θ +θ - 5° = 90°$ ⇒ $5θ = 95° $ ⇒ $θ =19°$ Hence, the correct answer
