    Exact value of \[\frac{\sin 22{}^\circ cos8{}^\circ +\cos 158{}^\circ \cos 98{}^\circ }{\sin 23{}^\circ \cos 7{}^\circ +\cos 157{}^\circ \cos 97{}^\circ }\]

    A) \[-\,1\]

    B) 1

    C) 0

    D) none of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Note that  \[\cos 158{}^\circ =\cos \,\,(180{}^\circ -22{}^\circ )=-\cos 22{}^\circ \] & \[\cos 98{}^\circ =\cos \,\,(90{}^\circ +8{}^\circ )=-\,\sin 8{}^\circ \]
    Also \[\cos 157{}^\circ =\cos (180{}^\circ -23{}^\circ )\]
                            \[=-\,\cos 23{}^\circ \]
    & \[\cos 97{}^\circ =\cos (90{}^\circ +7{}^\circ )=-\,\sin 7{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \] Given expression
                            \[=\frac{\sin 22{}^\circ \cos 8{}^\circ +\cos 22{}^\circ \sin 8{}^\circ }{\sin 23{}^\circ \cos 7{}^\circ +\cos 23{}^\circ \sin 7{}^\circ }\]
                            \[=\frac{\sin (23{}^\circ +8{}^\circ )}{\sin (23{}^\circ +7{}^\circ )}=1\]
    \[\therefore \]  Ans. is B
