Beyond the Answer
To simplify the expression \( \frac{\operatorname{Sin} 120 \cdot \cos 210 \cdot \tan 515 \cdot \cos 27}{\sin 63 \cdot \cos 540} \), we begin by evaluating each trigonometric function: 1. \( \sin 120^\circ = \sin(180^\circ - 60^\circ) = \sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) 2. \( \cos 210^\circ = \cos(180^\circ + 30^\circ) = -\cos 30^\circ = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) 3. For \( \tan 515^\circ \), we reduce \( 515^\circ \) by \( 360^\circ \) to get \( 155^\circ \): \( \tan 515^\circ = \tan(180^\circ - 25^\circ) = -\tan 25^\circ \) 4. \( \cos 27^\circ \) remains as is since it’s already in the simplest form. 5. \( \sin 63^\circ \) also remains as is. 6. \( \cos 540^\circ \) reduces to \( \cos(540^\circ - 360^\circ) = \cos 180^\circ = -1 \) Now substituting these values into the expression gives: \[ \frac{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \cdot \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \cdot (-\tan 25^\circ) \cdot \cos 27^\circ}{\sin 63^\circ \cdot (-1)} \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{\frac{3}{4} \tan 25^\circ \cdot \cos 27^\circ}{-\sin 63^\circ} \] Since \( -1 \) in the denominator changes the sign of the fraction: \[ = -\frac{3}{4} \frac{\tan 25^\circ \cdot \cos 27^\circ}{\sin 63^\circ} \] Using the identity \( \sin x = \cos(90^\circ - x) \), we find \( \sin 63^\circ = \cos 27^\circ \). Thus: \[ = -\frac{3}{4} \frac{\tan 25^\circ \cdot \cos 27^\circ}{\cos 27^\circ} = -\frac{3}{4} \tan 25^\circ \] Therefore, the simplified result is: \[ -\frac{3}{4} \tan 25^\circ \]
