Question : If $\theta$ is an acute angle and $\sin \theta=\frac{43}{47}$, what is the value of $\cot \theta$?

Option 1: $\frac{6 \sqrt{10}}{47}$

Option 2: $\frac{43}{6 \sqrt{10}}$

Option 3: $\frac{47}{6 \sqrt{10}}$

Option 4: $\frac{6 \sqrt{10}}{43}$

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{6 \sqrt{10}}{43}$


Solution : $\sin \theta = \frac{43}{47}$
$\therefore \cos \theta = \sqrt{1-\sin^2 \theta} = \sqrt{1-(\frac{43}{47})^2}$ = $\sqrt\frac{360}{47^2}$ = $\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{47}$
$\cot \theta = \frac{\cos\theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{47}}{\frac{43}{47}} = \frac{6\sqrt{10}}{43}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{43}$.

= $\frac{50}{2}$
= 25 cm2
Hence, the correct answer is 25 cm2.
