If 2 cotθ = 3, then find the value of .
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 0.
2 cotθ = 3
⇒ cotθ = 3/2 = B/P
⇒ H2 = B2 + P2
⇒ H2 = 32 + 22
⇒ H2 = 9 + 4
⇒ H2 = 13
⇒ H = √13
Now, sinθ = P/H = 2/√13
⇒ tanθ = P/B = 2/3
⇒ cosθ = B/H = 3/√13
Now,
⇒
⇒ = 0
