    If tan \[\left( 29+45{}^\circ  \right)\] = cot 36 where \[\left( 20+45{}^\circ  \right)\] and 36 are acute angles, then the value of 6 is

    A) \[5{}^\circ \]                            

    B) \[9{}^\circ \]

    C) \[12{}^\circ \]              

    D)        \[15{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     cos\[\theta \] \[=\frac{15}{17}\] \[\Rightarrow \] sec\[\theta \]=\[\frac{1}{\cos \theta }=\frac{17}{15}\] \[\therefore \]cot \[\left( 90{}^\circ -\theta  \right)\]= tan \[\theta \] \[=\sqrt{{{\sec }^{2}}\theta -1}\] \[=\sqrt{\frac{289-225}{225}}=\sqrt{\frac{64}{225}}=\frac{8}{15}\]
