Question:

In the right triangle shown in the figure ,what is the value of cosec $\theta$ ?

Options:

$\frac{13}{5}$

$\frac{5}{13}$

$\frac{5}{11}$

$\frac{12}{13}$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{13}{5}$

Explanation:

By using pythagoras theorem ,

P² + B² = H²

ATQ,

B = 5 and H = 13

P² + 5² = 13²

P² = 169 - 25

P² = 144

P = 12

cosecθ = \(\frac{H}{P}\)

= \(\frac{13}{5}\)
