The given expression is

[tex] tan 30 - \frac{cos 60}{cos30} [/tex]

And using complementary identity, which is

[tex] cos(90- \theta) = sin \theta [/tex]

So we will get

[tex] cos 60 = cos(90-30)=sin 30 [/tex]

Substituting sin 30 for cos 60 in the given expression

[tex] tan 30 - \frac{sin 30}{cos 30} \\ = tan 30- tan 30 \\ = 0 [/tex]

So the value of the expression is 0.
