If α is an acute angle, which of the following options will NOT necessarily be equal to the value of sec α?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 1sinα\frac{1}{sin\alpha}

Calculations:

We can do this question using the option method;

So, taking option 2

we have: As, we know that secα = 1/cosα

Hence, it cannot be equal to 1/sin α, the value is not equal to the sec α.
