Correct Answer :

Option B

3+122


Solution :

To find the value of the given expression, we will solve it in two main steps:
1. Evaluate the product expression for K.
2. Substitute the value of K into the expression sin(10Kπ3) and simplify.

Step 1: Simplify the expression for K

The given value of K is:

K=sinπ18sin5π18sin7π18

Converting the angles from radians to degrees (where π=180°):

π18=10°

5π18=50°

7π18=70°

Therefore, we can rewrite K as:

K=sin(10°)sin(50°)sin(70°)

We can use the standard trigonometric identity:
sin(θ)sin(60°-θ)sin(60°+θ)=14sin(3θ)

Substituting θ=10° into the identity, we get:

sin(10°)sin(60°-10°)sin(60°+10°)=14sin(3×10°)

sin(10°)sin(50°)sin(70°)=14sin(30°)

Since we know that sin(30°)=12, we have:

K=14×12=18

Step 2: Calculate the value of the target expression

Now, we substitute K=18 into the expression:

sin(10Kπ3)=sin(10×18×π3)

=sin(5π12)

Converting 5π12 to degrees:

5×180°12=5×15°=75°

Thus, we need to find sin(75°). We can evaluate this using the sum formula sin(A+B)=sinAcosB+cosAsinB:

sin(75°)=sin(45°+30°)

=sin(45°)cos(30°)+cos(45°)sin(30°)

=(12)(32)+(12)(12)

=3+122

Therefore, the correct answer is:

3+122
