Question
If \[\cos A = \frac{7}{25}\] find the value of tan A + cot A.
Solution
Given: `cos A=7/25`
We know that,
`sin^2 A+cos^2 A=1`
⇒` sin^2 A+(7/25)^2=1`
⇒` sin^2 A+49/625=1`
⇒` sin^2 A1-49/625`
⇒ `sin^2A=576/625`
⇒ `sin A=24/25`
Therefore,
`tan A+cot A= sin A/cos A+cos A/sin A`
=` (24/25)/(7/25)+1=(7/25)/(24/25)`
= `24/7+7/24`
=`((24)^2+(7)^2)/168`
=`(576+49)/168`
=`625/168`

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`
