उत्तर

If sin A = `1/2`, then the value of cot A is `underlinebb(sqrt(3))`.

Explanation:

According to the question,

sin A = `1/2`  ...(1)

We know that,

cot A = `1/(tan A) = (cos A)/(sin A)`  ...(2)

To find the value of cos A.

We have the equation,

sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1

So, cos θ = `sqrt(1 - sin^2θ)`

Then,

cos A = `sqrt(1 - sin^2A)`  ...(3)

cos2A = 1 – sin2A

cos A = `sqrt(1 - sin^2A)`

Substituting equation 1 in 3, we get,

cos A = `sqrt(1 - 1/4)`

= `sqrt(3/4)`

= `sqrt(3)/2`

Substituting values of sin A and cos A in equation 2, we get

cot A = `(sqrt(3)/2) xx 2`

= `sqrt(3)`

Prove that: cot θ + tan θ = cosec θ·sec θ

Proof: L.H.S. = cot θ + tan θ

= `square/square + square/square`  ......`[∵ cot θ = square/square, tan θ = square/square]`

= `(square + square)/(square xx square)`  .....`[∵ square + square = 1]`

= `1/(square xx square)`

= `1/square xx 1/square`

= cosec θ·sec θ  ......`[∵ "cosec"  θ = 1/square, sec θ = 1/square]`

= R.H.S.

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

∴ cot θ + tan θ = cosec·sec θ
