Question:

Find the value of \[ \sin 70^\circ \left( \cot 10^\circ \cot 70^\circ - 1 \right). \]

Show Hint

Use trigonometric identities to simplify expressions. In this case, the product \( \cot 10^\circ \cot 70^\circ = 1 \) simplifies the calculation.

Solution and Explanation

Using trigonometric identities: - We know that \( \cot 10^\circ \cot 70^\circ = 1 \) (since \( \cot \theta \cot (90^\circ - \theta) = 1 \)). - Therefore, the expression becomes: \[ \sin 70^\circ \left( 1 - 1 \right) = 0. \] Thus, the value of the expression is 0.
