If cos thita=24/25 then find: (a)sin thita (b) tan thita (c) sec thita
Answers
Given
Cosθ= 24/25
To Find
a)sinθ
b) tanθ
c)secθ
Cosθ=24/25(base/hypotenuse)
We know the hypotenuse theorem
We will apply hypotenuse theorem to find out the perpendicular.
base is 24
hypotenuse is 25
perpendicular = ?
h²= b²+p²
=>(25)²= (24)²+p²
=>625=576+p²
=>625-576= p²
=>p²=49
=>p= 7
(a) sinθ is perpendicular/hypotenuse
so,sinθ = 7/25
(b) tanθ is perpendicular/base
So,tanθ=7/24
(c)secθ is opposite of cosθ which is h/b
so,secθ=25/24
Extra information=>
Cosecθ= hypotenuse /perpendicular
Cotθ= base/perpendicular
=>cosecθ is reciprocal of sinθ
=>secθ is the reciprocal of cosθ
=>cotθ is the reciprocal of tanθ
Step-by-step explanation:
cos theta = 24/25
then, cos = base / hypotenuse
so, base = 24 cm
hypotenuse = 25 cm
so, bc = 25
ac= 24
so, (25)^2 = (24 x 24) + (ab x ab)
or, ab=√ (625) - (576)
or, ab = √49
or, ab= 7
then, a) sin theta = height / hypotenuse
= 7/25.
then, b) tan theta = height/base
= 7/24.
then, c) sec theta = hypotenuse/base
= 25/7.
