If `3sec^4 theta +8=10sec^2 theta` find `tan theta`. |
|
Answer» `3sec^4theta +8 = 10sec^2theta` `=>3sec^4theta - 10sec^2theta +8 =0` `=>3sec^4theta - 6sec^2theta - 4sec^2theta +8 =0` `=>3sec^2theta(sec^2theta - 2) -4(sec^2theta - 2) = 0` `=>(3sec^2theta - 4)(sec^2theta - 2) = 0` `=>sec^2theta = 4/3 or sec^2theta = 2` `=>1+tan^2theta = 4/3 or 1+tan^2theta = 2` `=>tan^2theta = 1/3 or tan^2theta = 1` `:. tan theta = 1/sqrt3 or tan theta = 1.` |
