If sinθ = \(\frac{8}{15}\), then what is the value of tanθ + cotθ ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
sinθ = \(\frac{8}{15}\)
⇒ sinθ = \(\frac{8(P)}{15(H)}\)
using Pythagoras theorem ,
Base = 17
tanθ + cotθ = \(\frac{P}{B}\) + \(\frac{B}{P}\)
= \(\frac{8}{17}\) + \(\frac{17}{8}\)
= \(\frac{353}{136}\)
