:
Evaluate sin⁡30∘+tan⁡45∘−csc⁡60∘sec⁡30∘+cos⁡60∘+cot⁡45∘\frac{\sin 30^\circ + \tan 45^\circ - \csc 60^\circ}{\sec 30^\circ + \cos 60^\circ + \cot 45^\circ}

  1. Substitute the known trigonometric values.

    We know:
    sin⁡30∘=12\sin 30^\circ = \frac{1}{2}
    tan⁡45∘=1\tan 45^\circ = 1
    csc⁡60∘=23\csc 60^\circ = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
    sec⁡30∘=23\sec 30^\circ = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
    cos⁡60∘=12\cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2}
    cot⁡45∘=1\cot 45^\circ = 1

    Substituting these values into the expression:

    12+1−2323+12+1\frac{\frac{1}{2} + 1 - \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{1}{2} + 1}
  2. Simplify the numerator.

    12+1−23=32−23=33−423\frac{1}{2} + 1 - \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{3\sqrt{3} - 4}{2\sqrt{3}}
  3. Simplify the denominator.

    23+12+1=23+32=4+3323\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{1}{2} + 1 = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4 + 3\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{3}}
  4. Divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator.

    33−4234+3323=33−44+33\frac{\frac{3\sqrt{3} - 4}{2\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{4 + 3\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{3}}} = \frac{3\sqrt{3} - 4}{4 + 3\sqrt{3}}
  5. Rationalize the denominator.

    Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator, which is 33−43\sqrt{3} - 4.

    33−433+4×33−433−4=(33−4)2(33)2−42\frac{3\sqrt{3} - 4}{3\sqrt{3} + 4} \times \frac{3\sqrt{3} - 4}{3\sqrt{3} - 4} = \frac{(3\sqrt{3} - 4)^2}{(3\sqrt{3})^2 - 4^2} =(33)2−2(33)(4)+4227−16=27−243+1611=43−24311= \frac{(3\sqrt{3})^2 - 2(3\sqrt{3})(4) + 4^2}{27 - 16} = \frac{27 - 24\sqrt{3} + 16}{11} = \frac{43 - 24\sqrt{3}}{11}

    The final answer is 43−24311\boxed{\frac{43 - 24\sqrt{3}}{11}}.

    :
    Evaluate 5cos⁡260∘+4sec⁡230∘−tan⁡245∘sin⁡230∘+cos⁡230∘\frac{5 \cos^2 60^\circ + 4 \sec^2 30^\circ - \tan^2 45^\circ}{\sin^2 30^\circ + \cos^2 30^\circ}

  6. Substitute the known trigonometric values.

    We know:
    cos⁡60∘=12\cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2}
    sec⁡30∘=23\sec 30^\circ = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
    tan⁡45∘=1\tan 45^\circ = 1
    And by the Pythagorean identity, sin⁡2θ+cos⁡2θ=1\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1, so sin⁡230∘+cos⁡230∘=1\sin^2 30^\circ + \cos^2 30^\circ = 1.

  7. Substitute these values into the expression.

    5(12)2+4(23)2−(1)21\frac{5 \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 + 4 \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^2 - (1)^2}{1}
  8. Calculate the squared terms.

    5(14)+4(43)−11\frac{5 \left(\frac{1}{4}\right) + 4 \left(\frac{4}{3}\right) - 1}{1}
  9. Perform the multiplications in the numerator.

    54+163−11\frac{\frac{5}{4} + \frac{16}{3} - 1}{1}
  10. Simplify the numerator by finding a common denominator.

    The common denominator for 4 and 3 is 12.

    5×34×3+16×43×4−1×121×121=1512+6412−12121\frac{\frac{5 \times 3}{4 \times 3} + \frac{16 \times 4}{3 \times 4} - \frac{1 \times 12}{1 \times 12}}{1} = \frac{\frac{15}{12} + \frac{64}{12} - \frac{12}{12}}{1} =15+64−1212=79−1212=6712= \frac{15 + 64 - 12}{12} = \frac{79 - 12}{12} = \frac{67}{12}

    The final answer is 6712\boxed{\frac{67}{12}}.
