any one wanna !! learn trigonometry or wanna revise it!! I've some ques
reply u r levels also
i am just here to revise
oh! @UnkleRhaukus here's a ques... for u! GIVEN: cotA+tanA = x & secA - cosA = y.... then which of the following is true ? (a) (xy^2)^2/3 - (x^2y)^2/3 = 1 (b) (x^2y)^2/3 - (xy^2)^2/3 = 1 (c) x^2/3+y^2/3 = 1 (d) none of these EXPLAIN AND WRITE EACH STEP AND CONCEPT.....
can you give me a clue
clue!- difficult trig. ques.
do u want the solution
i want you to teach me how to find the solution myself
hi, lets test this by putting a real number. A=30 degrees. (because for 30 degree we've all values defined in the table) then cotA+tanA = x =4/root 3 and secA - cosA = y=1/(2*root 3) now you put these values of x and y in LHS of first three equations, I'm not getting RHS=1. that's why right answer is (d) none of this.
@UnkleRhaukus ^^
that is not a mathematical solution
ya its ! logically its!
@rs32623 u r still writing!
it will go like this cotA+tanA = x & secA - cosA = y.... squaring both & subtracting 1st from 2nd we have -3+(cos^2a-cot^2a)=y^2-x^2 Now we have from 1st equation cota-tana=sqrt(x^2-4) & from 2nd we have seca+cosa=sqrt(y^2+4) From these two new equation we can find cos^2a & cot^2a in terms of x & y. Now put these values in equation & find the expression. I am calculating right now & report it in few minutes
oh
smells like none of these. may be i've mistaken at calculation but steps are perfectly correct you can give it a try. I used the concept that (a-b)=\[\sqrt{(a+b)^{2}-4ab}\] & (a+b)=\[\sqrt{(a-b)^{2}+4ab}\] From these we can find the cosa & hence the cos^2a by subtracting 2 from 5 similarly cota & hence cot^2a by adding 4 & 1 Also Sec^2a-tan^2=1 & seca*cosa=1 & cot*tana=1
