Options

  1. A−1-1
  2. B00
  3. C11
  4. D44

Correct answer

D. 44

Step-by-step solution

tan⁡9∘−tan⁡27∘−tan⁡63∘+tan⁡81∘=tan⁡9∘−tan⁡27∘−tan⁡(90∘−27∘)+tan⁡(90∘−9∘)\begin{aligned} & \tan 9^{\circ}-\tan 27^{\circ}-\tan 63^{\circ}+\tan 81^{\circ} \\ & =\tan 9^{\circ}-\tan 27^{\circ}-\tan \left(90^{\circ}-27^{\circ}\right)+\tan \left(90^{\circ}-9^{\circ}\right)\end{aligned}=tan⁡9∘−tan⁡27∘−cot⁡27∘+cot⁡9∘=tan⁡9∘+cot⁡9∘−(tan⁡27∘+cot⁡27∘)\begin{aligned} & =\tan 9^{\circ}-\tan 27^{\circ}-\cot 27^{\circ}+\cot 9^{\circ} \\ & =\tan 9^{\circ}+\cot 9^{\circ}-\left(\tan 27^{\circ}+\cot 27^{\circ}\right)\end{aligned} We know, tan⁡θ+cot⁡θ=1sin⁡θcos⁡θ=22sin⁡θcos⁡θ=2sin⁡2θ∴tan⁡9∘+cot⁡9∘−(tan⁡27∘+cot⁡27∘)\begin{aligned} & \tan \theta+\cot \theta=\frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}=\frac{2}{2 \sin \theta \cos \theta}=\frac{2}{\sin 2 \theta} \\ & \therefore \tan 9^{\circ}+\cot 9^{\circ}-\left(\tan 27^{\circ}+\cot 27^{\circ}\right)\end{aligned}=\frac{2}{\sin 18^{\circ}}-\frac{2}{\sin 54^{\circ}}=2 \left(\frac{\sin 54^{\circ}-\sin 18^{\circ}}{\sin 18^{\circ} \sin 54^{\circ}}\right) We also know, sin⁡C−sin⁡\sin C-\sinD=2cos⁡(C+D)2sin⁡(C−D2).∴2(sin⁡54∘−sin⁡18∘sin⁡18∘sin⁡54∘)=2⋅2⋅cos⁡36∘sin⁡18∘sin⁡18∘sin⁡54∘\begin{aligned}& =2 \cos \frac{(\mathrm{C}+\mathrm{D})}{2} \sin \left(\frac{\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{D}}{2}\right) .\\ & \therefore 2\left(\frac{\sin 54^{\circ}-\sin 18^{\circ}}{\sin 18^{\circ} \sin 54^{\circ}}\right)=2 \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{\cos 36^{\circ} \sin 18^{\circ}}{\sin 18^{\circ} \sin 54^{\circ}}\end{aligned}=2⋅2⋅2 \cdot 2 \cdot\frac{\sin 54^{\circ} \cdot \sin 18^{\circ}}{\sin 18^{\circ} \cdot \sin 54^{\circ}}=$4
