Evaluate: 15^ & 15^ 75^ & 75^ - Vidyadip

Question

Evaluate: $\begin{vmatrix}\cos15^\circ&\sin15^\circ\\\sin75^\circ&\cos75^\circ\end{vmatrix}$

✓

Answer

$\begin{vmatrix}\cos15^\circ&\sin15^\circ\\\sin75^\circ&\cos75^\circ\end{vmatrix}$
$=\cos15^\circ\cos75^\circ-\sin15^\circ\sin75^\circ$
$=\cos(15^\circ+75^\circ)$ $\big[\cos\text{A}\cos\text{B}-\sin\text{A}\sin\text{B}=\cos(\text{A}+\text{B})\big]$
$=\cos90^\circ$
$=0$
$\begin{vmatrix}\cos15^\circ&\sin15^\circ\\\sin75^\circ&\cos75^\circ\end{vmatrix}=0$
