(d) cot 300° 
(e) tan 330°

(e) tan 330° 
(f) cos (-60°)
(g) sin (-150°) 
(h) cos (-120°)

Ans.

Solution:

 (a) Cos 120° = cos(180° – 60°) = – cos 60° = -½ (since cos(180° – x) = – cos x)

Cos 120° = cos(90° + 30°) = – sin 30° = -½ (we know that cos (90° + x) = -sin x)

(b) 

(c) tan(-60°) = -tan 60°

= -√3

(d) cot300º = cot(360−60)º =−cot60º

cot300º=−1√3

(e)
