If cot x - tan x = 3/2, then what will be the value of cot x + tan x?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
cot x - tan x = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
Using formula ,
a - \(\frac{1}{a}\) = A , then a + \(\frac{1}{a}\) = \(\sqrt { A2 + 4}\)
So , cot x + tan x = \(\sqrt { (3/2)2 + 4}\)
= \(\sqrt { \frac{25}{4}}\)
= \(\frac{5}{2}\)
