Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Find the degree measure of the least positive angle θ for which
tanθ=(cos5^(∘)cos20^(∘)+cos35^(∘)cos50^(∘)−sin5^(∘)sin20^(∘)−sin35^(∘)sin50^(∘))/(sin5^(∘)cos20^(∘)−sin35^(∘)cos50^(∘)+cos5^(∘)sin20^(∘)−cos35^(∘)sin50^(∘)).
Original LaTeX notation
Find the degree measure of the least positive angle $\theta$ for which
\[\tan \theta = \frac{\cos 5^\circ \cos 20^\circ + \cos 35^\circ \cos 50^\circ - \sin 5^\circ \sin 20^\circ - \sin 35^\circ \sin 50^\circ}{\sin 5^\circ \cos 20^\circ - \sin 35^\circ \cos 50^\circ + \cos 5^\circ \sin 20^\circ - \cos 35^\circ \sin 50^\circ}.\]
