What is (tan x + tan y)(1 – cot x cot y) + (cot x + cot y)(1 – tan x tan y) equal to?

What is (tan x + tan y)(1 – cot x cot y) + (cot x + cot y)(1 – tan x tan y) equal to? Correct Answer 0

Given:

(tan x + tan y)(1 – cot x cot y) + (cot x + cot y)(1 – tan x tan y)

Formula Used:

tan 45° = cot 45° = 1

Calculation:

(tan x + tan y)(1 – cot x cot y) + (cot x + cot y)(1 – tan x tan y)

We can easily solve it by value putting:

Put x = y = 45°

⇒ (1 + 1)(1 – 1 × 1) + (1 + 1)(1 – 1 × 1)

⇒ 0 + 0

⇒ 0

∴ The value of (tan x + tan y)(1 – cot x cot y) + (cot x + cot y)(1 – tan x tan y) is 0.
