Question : In a triangle $XYZ$ right-angled at $Y$, if $XY=2\sqrt{6}$ and $XZ-YZ=2$, then $\sec X+\tan X$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}$

Option 2: $\sqrt{6}$

Option 3: $2\sqrt{6}$

Option 4: $\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}$

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\sqrt{6}$


Solution :
Given:
$XY=2\sqrt{6}$ and $XZ-YZ=2$
So, $XY^2+YZ^2=XZ^2$ ------------------------------ (1)
⇒ $XZ^2-YZ^2=XY^2=(2\sqrt{6})^2$
⇒ $(XZ+YZ)(XZ-YZ)=24$
⇒ $XZ+YZ=12$ (As $XZ-YZ=2$) -------------------- (2)
Now, after solving both equations, we get,
$XZ=7$ and $YZ=5$
Now, $\sec X+\tan X$
= $\frac{7}{(2\sqrt{6})} + \frac{5}{(2\sqrt{6})} $
= $\frac{12}{(2\sqrt{6})}$
= $\sqrt{6}$
Hence, the correct answer
