Question

6. If theta lies in the second quadrant and tan theta= -5/12

find the value of 2cos/1-sin​

Answer 1

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

tan = -5/12

we know that in the second quadrant sin is (+)ve and cos is (-)ve.

so sin = 5/13 and cos = -12/13

so 2cos/(1-sin) = {2×(-12/13)} / {1- ( 5/13)}

= (-24/13) / (8/13)

= -3
