QUESTION :-
Check and discuss the above relations in the case of angles between 0° and 90°, whether they hold for these angles or not ? So,
( 1 ) sin (90° - A) = cos A
( 2 ) cos (90° - A) = sin A
( 3 ) tan (90° - A) = cot A
( 4 ) cot (90° - A) = tan A
( 5 ) sec (90° - A) = cosec A
( 6 ) cosec (90° - A) = sec A
SOLUTION :-
- Let A = 30°
( 1 ) sin (90° - A) = cos A
⇒ sin (90° - 30°) = cos 30°
⇒ sin 60° = cos 30° = √3/2
( 2 ) cos (90° - A) = sin A
⇒ cos (90° - 30°) = sin 30°
⇒ cos 60° = sin 30° = 1/2
( 3 ) tan (90° - A) = cot A
⇒ tan (90° - 30°) = cot 30°
⇒ tan 60° = cot 30° = √3
( 4 ) cot (90° - A) = tan A
⇒ cot (90° - 30°) = tan 30°
⇒ cot 60° = tan 30° = 1/√3
( 5 ) sec (90° - A) = cosec A
⇒ sec (90° - 30°) = cosec 30°
⇒ sec 60° = cosec 30° = 2
( 6 ) cosec (90° - A) = sec A
⇒ cosec (90° - 30°) = sec 30°
⇒ cosec 60° = sec 30° = 2/√3
So, the above relations hold for all the
angles between 0° and 90°.
