    Question

    If A lies in the first quadrant and 6 tan A = 5, then

    the value of 8 sin A−4 cos A / cos A+2 sin A is :
    A 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D -2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    6 tan A = 5 tan A = 5 / 6 8 sin A−4 cos A / cos A+2 sin A = cosA(8 tan A−4) / cos A(1+2 tan A) = 8 tan A−4 / 1+2 tan A Put the value of tan θ, = (8 × 5 / 6 −4) / (1 + 2 × 5/6) = (20/3 – 4) / (1 + 5/3) = (8/3) /(8/3) = 1
