MCQ
If $\text{cosec x}+\cot \text{x}=\frac{11}{2},$ then $\tan\text{x}$ is equal to:
- A$\frac{21}{22}$
- B$\frac{15}{16}$
- C$\frac{44}{117}$
- D$\frac{117}{44}$
Solution:
We have:
$\text{cosec}\text{ x}+\cot\text{x}=\frac{11}{2}\cdots(1)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{cosec}\text{ x}+\cot\text{x}}=\frac{2}{11}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{cosec}^2\text{x}-\cot\text{x}}{\text{cosec }\text{x}-\cot\text{x}}=\frac{2}{11}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{(\text{cosec}\text{ x}+\cot\text{x})(\text{cosec}\text{ x}-\cot\text{x})}{(\text{cosec}\text{ x}+\cot\text{x})}=\frac{2}{11}$
$\therefore\text{cosec}\text{ x}-\cot\text{x}=\frac{2}{11}\cdots(2)$
subtracting (2) from (1):
$\Rightarrow 2\cot\text{x}=\frac{11}{2}-\frac{2}{11}$
$\Rightarrow2\cot\text{x}=\frac{121-4}{22}$
$\Rightarrow2\cot\text{x}=\frac{117}{22}$
$\Rightarrow\cot\text{x}=\frac{117}{44}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\tan\text{x}}=\frac{117}{44}$
$\Rightarrow\tan\text{x}=\frac{44}{117}$
