(B) Let $\frac{x}{\cos 	heta} = \frac{y}{\cos \left( 	heta - \frac{2\pi}{3} ight)} = \frac{z}{\cos \left( 	heta + \frac{2\pi}{3} ight)} = k$. Then,$x = k \cos 	heta$,$y = k \cos \left( 	heta - \frac{2\pi}{3} ight)$,and $z = k \cos \left( 	heta + \frac{2\pi}{3} ight)$. Summing these,$x + y + z = k \left[ \cos 	heta + \cos \left( 	heta - \frac{2\pi}{3} ight) + \cos \left( 	heta + \frac{2\pi}{3} ight) ight]$. Using the identity $\cos(A - B) + \cos(A + B) = 2 \cos A \cos B$,we get $\cos \left( 	heta - \frac{2\pi}{3} ight) + \cos \left( 	heta + \frac{2\pi}{3} ight) = 2 \cos 	heta \cos \left( \frac{2\pi}{3} ight)$. Since $\cos \left( \frac{2\pi}{3} ight) = -\frac{1}{2}$,the sum becomes $2 \cos 	heta \left( -\frac{1}{2} ight) = -\cos 	heta$. Therefore,$x + y + z = k [ \cos 	heta - \cos 	heta ] = k(0) = 0$.

If $\frac{x}{\cos \theta} = \frac{y}{\cos \left( \theta - \frac{2\pi}{3} \right)} = \frac{z}{\cos \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right)},$ then $x + y + z = $
