Solution
The correct option is
D
1
x
+
1
y
Solution:
We have,
tan
A
−
tan
B
=
x
,
cot
B
−
cot
A
=
y
To find:
cot
(
A
−
B
)
=
?
Solution:
tan
A
−
tan
B
=
x
or,
1
cot
A
−
1
cot
B
=
x
or,
cot
B
−
cot
A
cot
A
cot
B
=
x
or,
cot
A
cot
B
=
y
x
Now,
cot
(
A
−
B
)
=
cot
A
cot
B
+
1
cot
B
−
cot
A
=
y
x
+
1
y
[From above]
=
1
x
+
1
y
Hence, C is the correct option.
