Find the following figure , find the value of :
1. sin A
2. sec A
3. cos²A + sin²A
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:- AB = a ---- B
BC = a ---- P
To prove:- 1. sin A
2. sec A
3. cos²A + sin²A
Proof:- By Phythagoras theorem,
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = a² + a²
AC² = 2a²
AC = 2a ---- H
1. Sin A = P
H
Sin A = a
2a
Sin A = 1
2
2. Sec A = H
B
Sec A = 2a
a
Sec A = 2
3. cos²A + sin²A = ( B )² + ( P )²
H H
= a² + a²
2a² 2a²
= a² + a²
4a² 4a²
= 2a²
8a²
= 1
