The value of (sin 18° / cos 72°) is:
A. 0
B. 1
C. √3
D. 1/2
Check Answer
Show Solution
Correct: B
We use the complementary angle identity: cos θ = sin (90° - θ). So, cos 72° = cos (90° - 18°) = sin 18°. Substitute this into the expression: sin 18° / cos 72° = sin 18° / sin 18° = 1 (assuming sin 18° ≠ 0, which is true).
