    The value of \[\cot 41{}^\circ \cdot \cot 42{}^\circ \cdot \cot 43{}^\circ \cdot \cot 44{}^\circ \]\[\cdot \cot 45{}^\circ \cdot \cot 46\cdot \cot 47{}^\circ \cdot \cot 48{}^\circ \cdot cot49{}^\circ \] is                                                                                                             [SSC (CGL) Mains 2015]

    A)  0

    B)  1   

    C)  \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\]    

    D)  \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[\cot 41{}^\circ \cdot \cot 42{}^\circ \cdot \cot 43{}^\circ \cdot \cot 44{}^\circ \]
    \[\cdot \cot 45{}^\circ \cdot \cot 46{}^\circ \cdot \cot 47{}^\circ \cdot \cot 48{}^\circ \cdot \cot 49{}^\circ \]
    \[=\cot (90{}^\circ -49{}^\circ )\cdot \cot (90{}^\circ -48{}^\circ )\cdot \cot (90{}^\circ -47{}^\circ )\]
    \[\cdot \cot (90{}^\circ -46{}^\circ )\cdot \cot 45{}^\circ -\cot 46{}^\circ \]
    \[\cdot \cot 47{}^\circ \cdot \cot 48{}^\circ \cdot \cot 49{}^\circ \]
    \[=\tan 49{}^\circ \cdot \tan 48{}^\circ \cdot \tan 47{}^\circ \cdot \tan 46{}^\circ \cdot \cot 45{}^\circ \]
    \[\cdot \cot 46{}^\circ \cdot \cot 47{}^\circ \cdot \cot 48{}^\circ \cdot \cot 49{}^\circ \]
    \[=1\cdot 1\cdot 1\cdot 1\cdot 1=1\]        \[[\because \cot 45{}^\circ =1\,and\,\tan \theta \cdot \cot \theta =1]\]
