\(\frac{11sin70° }{7cos20° } - \frac{4cos53°cosec37°}{7tan15° tan35° tan75°tan55° }\)

According to the trigonometric ratio of complementry angles:

If θ is acute:

sin(90 - θ) = cosθ, cos(90 - θ) = sinθ, tan(90 - θ) = cotθ,

sec(90 - θ) = cosecθ, cosec(90 - θ) = secθ, cot(90 - θ) = tanθ,

means, sin(70) = sin(90 - 20) = cos20

cos(53) = cos(90 - 37) = sin(37)

tan15 = tan(90 - 75) = cot (75)

and, tan(35) = cot(55),

Now on putting in given expression

\(\frac{11sin(20) }{7cos(20) } - \frac{4cos(37)cosec(37)}{7tan(75) tan(55) tan(75)tan(55)}\)

as, tanθ x cotθ = 1, we get

\(\frac{11} 7 - \frac47 = 1\)
