The value of sin 264° + cos 64° sin 26° + 2 cos 43° cosec 47° is:

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2018 (Tier 2) Statistics Previous Year Paper (22-feb-2018)
The correct answer is

3

The expression is \(\sin^2 64^\circ + \cos 64^\circ \sin 26^\circ + 2\cos 43^\circ \csc 47^\circ\).

Step 1 — Simplify the second term using complementary angles:

Since \(\sin 26^\circ = \cos 64^\circ\), we get \(\cos 64^\circ \sin 26^\circ = \cos^2 64^\circ\). So the first two terms become \(\sin^2 64^\circ + \cos^2 64^\circ = 1\).

Step 2 — Simplify the third term:

\(\csc 47^\circ = \sec 43^\circ = \dfrac{1}{\cos 43^\circ}\), so \(2\cos 43^\circ \csc 47^\circ = \dfrac{2\cos 43^\circ}{\cos 43^\circ} = 2\).

Therefore the value is \(1 + 2 = \mathbf{3}\).
