Question

    If sin A = (4/5), then find the value of {cosec A × cos A + sec A × tan A}.

    B 107/36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 117/36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 109/37 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 107/37 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let ABC be a right-angled triangle. Given, in A = 4/5 Or sin A = BC/AC = (4/5) By using Pythagoras theorem, BA ² = AC ² – BC ² = 25 – 16= 9 So, BA = 3units Now, Cosec A × cos A + sec A × tan A =   (AC/BC) ×(AB/AC) + (AC/AB) × (BC/AB)   = (5/4) × (3/5) +(5/3) × (4/3) = (3/4) + (20/9) =107/36
