उत्तर

 

Given that α is in quadrant IV, where x is positive and y is negative.

`sec alpha=r/x=2/sqrt3`

`Let r=2k, `

`r^2=x^2+y^2`

`therefore(2k^2)=(sqrt(3k))^2+y^2`

`therefore y^2=4k^2-3k^2=k^2`

`therefore y=+-k`

`cosec alpha =r/y=(2k)/-k=-2`

Substituting the value of cosec ,we get

`(1-cosec alpha)/(1+cosec alpha)=(1-(-2))/(1+(-2))=(1+2)/(1-2)=3/-1 `

`(1-cosec alpha)/(1+cosec alpha)=-3`

Find the value of sin2θ  + cos2θ

Solution:

In Δ ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠C = θ°

AB2 + BC2 = `square`   .....(Pythagoras theorem)

Divide both sides by AC2

`"AB"^2/"AC"^2 + "BC"^2/"AC"^2 = "AC"^2/"AC"^2`

∴ `("AB"^2/"AC"^2) + ("BC"^2/"AC"^2) = 1`

But `"AB"/"AC" = square and "BC"/"AC" = square`

∴ `sin^2 theta  + cos^2 theta = square`
