Solution
`(5cot5° cot15° cot25° cot35° cot45°)/(7tan45° tan55° tan65° tan75° tan85°) + (2"cosec"12° "cosec"24° cos78° cos66°)/(7sin14° sin23° sec76° sec67°)`
= `(5cot(90° - 85°) cot(90° - 75°) cot(90° - 65°) cot(90° - 55°) xx 1)/(7 xx 1xx tan55° tan65° tan75° tan85°) + (2"cosec"(90° - 78°) "cosec"(90° - 66°) cos78° cos66°)/(7sin(90° - 76°) sin(90° - 67°) sec76° sec67°)`
= `(5tan85° tan75° tan65° tan55°)/(7 xx tan55° tan65° tan75° tan85°) + (2sec78° sec66° xx 1/(sec78°) xx 1/(sec66°))/(7cos76° cos67° xx 1/(cos76°) xx 1/(cos67°)`
= `(5)/(7) + (2)/(7)`
= `(7)/(7)`
= 1.
