Question

If θ lies in the first quadrant and cos θ = 8/17, then the value of cos (300 +θ) + cos (450 – θ) + cos (1200 – θ) is

Solution

Correct option is

 

Now the given expression is equal to

cos 300 cos θ – sin 300 sin θ + cos 450 cos θ + sin 450 sin θ + cos 1200 cos θ + sin 1200 sin θ                                                                                  

           = cos θ (cos 300 + cos 450 + cos 1200) – sin θ (sin 300 – sin 45 – sin 1200)                                                                                        

           =
