SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 55

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. - $\frac{5}{4}$.

Given that

If sinA = - $\frac{3}{5}$,

A lies in III quadrant

This means that the tan A and cot A values are only positive.

According to the question

⇒ SinA = - $\frac{3}{5}$ = P/H

⇒ B² = H² - P²

⇒ B² = 25 - 9 = 16

⇒ B = 4

As we know,

secA = H/B = - 5/4
