SSC CHSL - 05 July 2024 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q55

If θ\theta be acute angle and cos θ\theta = 2425\frac{24}{25}, then the value of cot (90 - θ\theta) is equal to:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 724\frac{7}{24}.

cos θ = 24/25 = Base/Hypotenuse

Length = √(252 - 242) = √(625 - 576) = √49 = 7

cot (90 - θ) = tan θ = 7/24
