if tan theta=3/4,find the value of cosec theta
Answers
Hi mate!
Answer:
5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we are going to use the identity:-
cosec²θ = 1 + cot²θ or cosec²θ - cot²θ = 1 ( both are same if u simplify it)
so we have to find cosecθ
so in the formula it is square(²) of cosec but we want only cosecθ so we will square root on both sides
then we will have,
cosecθ=√(1+cot²θ) (now we have the perfect formula)
now only we need is cot²θ but basically only cotθ then we will square it and then we get cot²θ
so we are given the value of tanθ that is:- tanθ=3/4
also, we know that tanθ=1/cotθ, right?
so cotθ = 1/tanθ (just exchanged the places like cross multiply)
so cotθ= 1/(3/4) (as tanθ=3/4 so I replaced it in the equation)
so cot θ = 4/3 (just simplified it)
now we have cotθ=4/3 but we need cot²θ so we square both the sides
cot²θ=(4)²/(3)²=16/9
now we will replace the value of cot²θ in our formula :- cosecθ=√(1+cot²θ)
so cosecθ=√(1+(16/9))
=√((9+16)/9)
=√(25/9)
= (√25)/(√9)
so we have cosec θ = (√25)/(√9)
We know √25=5 and √9=3
so cosecθ = √25)/(√9) = 5/3
final answer ------- COSECθ = 5/3
