Question

$\cot(90^\circ - \theta) = ?$

• A. \( \sin \theta \)
• B. \( \cos \theta \)
• C. \( \tan \theta \)
• D. \( \sec \theta \)

Hint:

For trigonometric identities, \( \cot(90^\circ - \theta) = \cos(\theta) \) is a key identity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

1. Use the trigonometric identity for complementary angles. The identity for cotangent is: \[ \cot(90^\circ - \theta) = \tan(\theta) \] 2. This identity directly gives us the result. Therefore, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{\text{A: } \tan(\theta)} \]
