Express the trigonometric ratios sin A, sec A and tan A in terms of cot A.

1) sinA= 1/cosecA = 1 / √(1+cot²A)
[ cot²A+ 1 = cosec²A,
cosecA= √( 1+cot²A)]
 
2) tanA= 1/cotA
 
3) secA= √(1+tan²A)
[sec²A= 1+tan²A ,
secA= √ (1+tan²A)]
secA= √(1+ (1/cot²A)) = √ (1+1/ cot²A)
secA = √(cot²A+1/cot²A)
secA= √1+cot²A/ (cotA)

Comments

Write all the other trigonometric ratios of  in terms of sec A.

We know that,

Also, sin2 A + cos2 A = 1

sin2 A = 1 − cos2 A

tan2A + 1 = sec2A

tan2A = sec2A − 1

Evaluate:

(i)

(ii)

(i)

sinx= cos(90-x)

sin 63 = cos(90-63) =cos 27

sin 27 = cos(90-27) =cos 63

sin 17 = cos(90-17) =cos 73

sin 73 = cos(90-73)=cos 17

 =  = 1

 =  = 1

By using the fact that

Hence, answer is 1

(ii)

 sin 25 = cos(90-25) = cos 65

 cos 25 = sin(90-25) = sin 65

Hence, cos25 sin65 + cos65 sin25 = cos25 x cos25 + sin25 x sin25 =1

Bu using the fact that

Choose the correct option. Justify your choice.

(i)

(A) 1  (B) 9  (C) 8  (D) 0

(ii) 

(A) 0 (B) 1 (C) 2 (D) –1

(iii)(sec A + tan A) (1 – sin A) =

(A) sec A (B) sin A (C) cosec A (D) cos A

(iv)

(A)  (B)  (C)  (D)

(i) 9 sec2A − 9 tan2A

= 9 (sec2A − tan2A)

= 9 (1) [As sec2 A − tan2 A = 1]

= 9

Hence, alternative (B) is correct.

(ii)

(1 + tan θ + sec θ) (1 + cot θ − cosec θ)

Hence,option (C) is correct.

(iii) (secA + tanA) (1 − sinA)

=

 = cosA

Hence, option (D) is correct.

(iv) 

Hence, option  (D) is correct.
