Question 48

What is the value of $$[(\cos 7A + \cos 5A)÷(\sin 7A - \sin 5A)]$$?

Solution

We have cos 7A +Cos 5A = 2cos 6A cos A   (1)  cos C +cos D = 2cos(C+D)/2 cos (C-D)/2
Now 
sin7A -sin5A = 2cos6AsinA       (2)                     sinC -sinD = 2cos(C+D)/2 sin(C-D)/2
Dividing (1) and (2)
we get $$\frac{\cos7A+\cos5A}{\sin7A-\sin5A}=\frac{\cos A}{\sin A}=\ \cot A$$
