The Deep Dive
Let's tackle the first part: To simplify \( \frac{\cos \left(\theta-90^{\circ}\right)}{\sin (90+\theta) \tan \left(720^{\circ}-\theta\right)} \), remember that \( \cos(\theta - 90^\circ) = \sin(\theta) \) and \( \sin(90 + \theta) = \cos(\theta) \). The tangent function has a periodicity of \( 180^\circ \), so \( \tan(720^\circ - \theta) = \tan(-\theta) = -\tan(\theta) \). Plugging this in gives you: \[ \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta \cdot (-\tan \theta)} = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta \cdot \left(-\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right)} = -1 \] Now onto the second part: 1) For \( 5.3 .1 \cos 228^{\circ} \), we can use the identity \( \cos(228^\circ) = \cos(180^\circ + 48^\circ) = -\cos 48^\circ = -t \). 2) In \( 5.3 .2 \cos B + \sin(-42^{\circ}) \), \( \sin(-42^\circ) = -\sin(42^\circ) \), leaving us with \( \cos B - \sin(42^\circ) \). 3) Finally, for \( 5.3 .3 \cos B + \cos 24^{\circ} \), it retains as is unless \( \cos 24^\circ \) has to be expressed differently which generally relies on specific angle values. Therefore, you have these simplified forms expressed in terms of \( t \) and basic trigonometric identities!
