Theorem
- $\cot 195 \degrees = \cot \dfrac {13 \pi} {12} = 2 + \sqrt 3$
where $\cot$ denotes cotangent.
Proof
| \(\ds \cot 195 \degrees\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map \cot {360 \degrees - 165 \degrees}\) | ||||||||||||
| \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds -\cot 165 \degrees\) | Cotangent of Conjugate Angle | |||||||||||
| \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 2 + \sqrt 3\) | Cotangent of $165 \degrees$ |
$\blacksquare$
