Welcome back, everyone. Let's try solving this problem. So here we are asked to write the expression in terms of the appropriate cofunction, and we are given the cotangent of 25 degrees. Now to solve this problem, our first step is going to be to find the appropriate cofunction for the cotangent, and that's going to just be the tangent. We learned this in the previous video. You can also recognize the names. Right? The cofunction for tangent would be cotangent, and so the cofunction for cotangent is just tangent. Now what we need to put inside the tangent is the complementary angle. And since I see our angle is measured in degrees, we're going to have 90 degrees minus the angle we started with, which is 25 degrees. That's always how you can find the complementary angle. So what I can do is subtract 25 from 90, and that's going to give me 65. So what we're gonna end up with is the tangent of 65 degrees, and that is the cofunction for the cotangent of 25 degrees. Hope you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching.
