SSC CHSL 2021 PYQ — Question 75

SSC CHSL - 6 Aug 2021 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q75

If sinθ + cosecθ = 7, then what is the value of sin3θ + cosec3θ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 322.

sin θ + cosec θ = 7

⇒ sin θ + 1sinθ\frac{1}{sin θ} = 7

Now,

sin3 θ + 1sin3θ\frac{1}{sin^3 θ} = (7)3 - 3(7)    [x3 + 1x3\frac{1}{x^3} = (x + 1x\frac{1}{x})3 - 3(x + 1x\frac{1}{x})]

⇒ 343 - 21 = 322
