Question : If $\sin \theta-\cos \theta=\frac{1}{5}$, then find the value of $\sin \theta+\cos \theta$.

Option 1: $\frac{5}{7}$

Option 2: $\frac{7}{5}$

Option 3: $\frac{5}{3}$

Option 4: $\frac{3}{5}$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{7}{5}$


Solution : Given, $\sin \theta-\cos \theta=\frac{1}{5}$
Squaring both sides, we get,
$\sin^2 \theta+\cos^2 \theta -2\sin \theta \cos \theta=\frac{1}{25}$
$⇒1-2\sin \theta \cos \theta=\frac{1}{25}$
$⇒2\sin \theta \cos \theta=\frac{24}{25}$
Adding 1 with both sides, we get,
$⇒\sin^2 \theta+\cos^2 \theta +2\sin \theta \cos \theta=1+\frac{24}{25}$ [$\because \sin^2 \theta+\cos^2 \theta=1$]
$⇒(\sin \theta+\cos \theta)^2=\frac{49}{25}$
