उत्तर

Given that, PR + QR = 25

PQ = 5

Let PR be x.

Therefore, QR = 25 − x

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔPQR, we obtain

PR2 = PQ2 + QR2

x2 = (5)2 + (25 − x)2

x2 = 25 + 625 + x2 − 50x

50x = 650

x = 13

Therefore, PR = 13 cm

QR = (25 − 13) cm

= 12 cm

sin P = `("QR")/("PR")=12/13`

cos P = `("PQ")/("PR")=5/13`

tan P = `("QR")/("PQ")=12/5`
