if sin theta = 1/4 and cos theta = sqrt(15)/4 then what is the exat value of cot theta
cot = cos / sin = [ sqrt(15 ) / 4 ] / [1 / 4] = [ sqrt(15)/ 4 ] * [ 4 / 1 ] = sqrt(15)
This is the exact value.
Hallo
Tan=Sin(theta)/Cos(theta)
Tan=1/4 / .968=.2583
Cot(theta)=1/tan=1/.2583=3.8715
CPhill:please rectify the discrepancy between the two answers. Thanks.
Correction: I'm so sorry
No big deal, Omi.....it was just a slight mistake......we all make them !!!!!!
