उत्तर

In a right angles triangle ABC, right-angled at B, according to the Pythagoras theorem

AB2 + BC2 = AC2

According to the distance formula, the distance 'd' between two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by

`d = root(2)((a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2`....(1)

For the given points Distance between P and Q is

PQ = `sqrt((-2-2)^2 + (2 - 2)^2) = sqrt(16)`

QR = `sqrt((2-2)^2 + (7 - 2)^2) = sqrt(25)`

PR = `sqrt((-2-2)^2 + (2 - 7)^2) = sqrt(16 + 25) = sqrt(41)`

PQ2 = 16

QR2 = 25

PR2 = 41

As PQ2 + QR2 = PR2

Hence the given points form a right-angled triangle.

Prove the following identities: sec2 θ + cosec2 θ = sec2 θ cosec2 θ.


If cot θ = `40/9`, find the values of cosec θ and sinθ,

We have, 1 + cot2θ = cosec2θ

1 + `square` = cosec2θ

1 + `square` = cosec2θ

`(square + square)/square` = cosec2θ

`square/square` = cosec2θ  ......[Taking root on the both side]

cosec θ = `41/9`

and sin θ = `1/("cosec"  θ)`

sin θ = `1/square`

∴ sin θ =  `9/41`

The value is cosec θ = `41/9`, and sin θ = `9/41`
