Question

In each of the following, one trigonometric ratio is given. Find the values of the other trigonometric.

cose C = `(15)/(11)`

Sum

Solution

cose C = `(15)/(11)`

cose C = `(1)/"sin C" ="Hypotenuse"/"Perpendicular" = (15)/(11)`

By Pythagoras theorem, we have
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Perpendicular)2 + (Base)2
⇒ Base = `sqrt(("Hypotenuse")^2 - ("Perpendicular")^2`
⇒ Base
= `sqrt((15)^2 + (11)^2`
= `sqrt(225 - 121)`
= `sqrt(104)`

sin C = `"Perpendicular"/"Hypotenuse" = (11)/(15)`

cos C = `"Base"/"Hypotenuse" = sqrt(104)/(11)`

tan C = `"Perpendicular"/"Base" = (11)/sqrt(104)`

sec C = `(1)/"cos C" = (15)/(sqrt(104)`

cot C = `(1)/"tan A" = sqrt(104)/(11)`.
