sin(arccos4)-cot(arc csc5)sin(arccos4)cot(arccsc5) oes not exist.

Explanation:

ad the range of costhetacosθ is [-1,1][1,1] i.e. costhetacosθ can take values only between -11 and 11 including -11 and 11,

sin(arccos(4))sin(arccos(4)) does not exist.

Hence sin(arccos4)-cot(arc csc5)sin(arccos4)cot(arccsc5) oes not exist.

However, arccsc(5)=arcsin(1/5)=11.537^o or 168.463^o.

Hence cot(arc csc5)=cot11.537^o=4.899 or

cot(arc csc5)=cot168.463^o=-4.899
