If 5 cot θ = 12, find the value of : Cosec θ+ sec θ 

बेरीज

उत्तर

Consider the diagram below : 

5cot θ = 12
cot θ = `(12)/(5)`

i.e.`"base"/"perpendicular" = (12)/(5)`

Therefore if length of base = 12x, length of perpendicular = 5x

Since
base2 + perpendicular2 = hypotenuse2  ...[ Using Pythagoras Theorem]

(12x)2 + (5x)2 = hypotenuse2

hypotenuse2 = 144x2 + 25x2 = 169x2

∴ hypotenuse = 13x

Now

cosec θ = `"hypotenuse"/"perpendicular" = (13x)/(5x) = (13)/(5)`

sec θ = `"hypotenuse"/"base" = (13x)/(12x) = (13)/(12)`

Therefore
cosec θ+sec θ

= `(13)/(5)+(13)/(12)`

= `(221)/(60)`

= `3(41)/(60)`
