Question:

If sinθ = \(\frac{a^2 + b^2}{\sqrt {2a^4 + 2b^4}}\)

Find the value of cosec (90 - θ ) × tan θ

Options:

\(\frac{\sqrt {2a^4 + 2b^4}(a^2+b^2)}{(a^2 - b^2)^2}\)

\(\frac{\sqrt {a^2 - b^2} + (a+b)}{2\sqrt {ab}}\)

0

\(\frac{1}{\sqrt {ab}}\) × \(\frac{\sqrt {a^2 - b^2}}{4ab^2}\)

Correct Answer:

\(\frac{\sqrt {2a^4 + 2b^4}(a^2+b^2)}{(a^2 - b^2)^2}\)

Explanation:

sin θ = \(\frac{P}{H}\) = \(\frac{a^2 + b^2}{\sqrt {2a^4 + 2b^4}}\)

then → B = a2 - b2

Now → cosec(90 - θ ) × tan θ

        = sec θ × tan θ

        = \(\frac{HP}{B^2}\)

        = \(\frac{\sqrt {2a^4 + 2b^4}(a^2+b^2)}{(a^2 - b^2)^2}\)
