Answer:
answers are given for the given problem
Answer:
given: 3 cot x = 4
to evaluate (5 sin x - 3 cos x)/(5 sin x + 3 cos x)
3 cot x = 4 => cot x = 4/3
=> cot x = base/perpendicular
=> therefore, base = 4 and perpendicular = 3
and by Pythagoras theorem, hypotenuse = 5
now, sin x = perpendicular/hypotenuse
=> sin x = 3/5
cos x = base/perpendicular
=> cos x = 4/5
substitute these values in the given expression,
=> (5 * 3/5 - 3*4/5)/(5*3/5 + 3*4/5)
=> (3 - 12/5)/(3 + 13/5)
=> [(15 - 12)/5] / [(15 + 12)/5]
=> (3/5)/(27/5)
=> 3/27
=> 1/9 Answer
if 5 cos x - 12 sin x = 0
evaluate (sin x + cos x)/(2 cos x - sin x)
=> 5 cos x - 12 sin x = 0
=> 5 cos x = 12 sin x
=> 5/12 = sin x/cos x= tan x [by transposing]
=> tan x = 5/12 => perpendicular/base
=> perpendicular = 5 base = 12
therefore by Pythagoras theorem, hypotenuse= 13
therefore sin x = 5/13 cos x = 12/13
substitute these values in the given expression,
(5/13 + 12/13) / ( 2*12/13 - 5/13)
=> (17/13)/(19/13)
=> 17/19
