Question
Find the value of x in the following :
`2 sin x/2 = 1`
Advertisements
Solution
We have
`2 sin x/2 = 1`
`=> sin x/2 = 1/2`
Since `sin 30^@ = 1/2`
Therefore
`sin x/2 = 1/2`
`sin x/2 = sin 30^@`
`x/2 = 30^@`
`x = 2 xx 30^@`
`=> x = 60^@`
Therefore
`x = 60^@`

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
