If tan θ = and θ is acute, find the values of sin θ and cos θ.

Question

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

tan θ = Let perpendicular = 5x and base = 12x By pythagoras theorem, we get : Hypotenuse2 = Base2 + Perpendicular2 Hypotenuse2 = (12x)2 + (5x)2 Hypotenuse2 = 144x2 + 25x2 Hypotenuse2 = 169x2 Hypotenuse = Hypotenuse = 13x sin θ = cos θ =
