The value of \(cosec(75°+\theta) - sec(15°-\theta) - tan(55°+\theta) + cot(35°-\theta)\) is:

  • A.-1
  • B.0
  • C.1
  • D.3/2

Answer: B

We use the complementary angle identities: \(\sec(90°-A) = \csc A\) and \(\cot(90°-A) = \tan A\).

\(\sec(15°-\theta) = \sec(90° - (75°+\theta)) = \csc(75°+\theta)\).

\(\cot(35°-\theta) = \cot(90° - (55°+\theta)) = \tan(55°+\theta)\).

The expression becomes: \(\csc(75°+\theta) - \csc(75°+\theta) - \tan(55°+\theta) + \tan(55°+\theta) = 0\).
