If tan A = $\frac{2.4}{0.7}$, what is the value of (50 cos A + 24 cot A) ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Given :- tanA = \(\frac{2.4}{0.7}\) = \(\frac{P}{B}\)
Using triplet ( 24 , 7 , 25 ) We find that H = 2.5
Now , (50 cos A + 24 cot A)
= (50× \(\frac{B}{H}\) + 24 ×\(\frac{B}{P}\) )
= (50× \(\frac{0.7}{2.5}\) + 24 ×\(\frac{0.7}{2.4}\) )
= 14 + 7
= 21
