Beyond the Answer
To evaluate the expression \( \frac{\tan 30^{\circ} \cdot \operatorname{cosec} 60^{\circ}}{\cos 45^{\circ} \cdot \sin 45^{\circ}} \), let's first recall some trigonometric values: 1. \( \tan 30^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \) 2. \( \operatorname{cosec} 60^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sin 60^{\circ}} = \frac{1}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \) 3. \( \cos 45^{\circ} = \sin 45^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \) Now substituting these values into the expression: \[ \frac{\tan 30^{\circ} \cdot \operatorname{cosec} 60^{\circ}}{\cos 45^{\circ} \cdot \sin 45^{\circ}} = \frac{\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)} \] Calculating the numerator: \[ \frac{1 \cdot 2}{\sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{3}} = \frac{2}{3} \] Calculating the denominator: \[ \frac{\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}}{2 \cdot 2} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2} \] Putting it all together: \[ \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{1} = \frac{4}{3} \] To find \( \theta \) such that \( \theta \in [0^{\circ}, 90^{\circ}] \) and \( \tan \theta = \frac{4}{3} \), we can identify the angle that corresponds to this ratio. This leads us to conclude that: \[ \theta = \tan^{-1} \left(\frac{4}{3}\right) \] Hence, the value of \( \theta \) can be determined as \( \theta \) which lies between \( 0^{\circ} \) and \( 90^{\circ} \).
