    If θ is an acute angle and tanθ = 4855\frac{48}{55}5548​​, then what is the value of cosecθ?
    Question

    If θ is an acute angle and tanθ = 4855\frac{48}{55}​, then what is the value of cosecθ?

    A.

    7348\frac{73}{48}​​

    B.

    7355\frac{73}{55}​​

    C.

    5548\frac{55}{48}​​

    D.

    4873\frac{48}{73}​​

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    tanθ=4855\tan \theta = \frac{48}{55}​​

    θ is an acute angle

    Formula Used:
    In a right-angled triangle,

    tanθ=Perpendicular Base,\tan \theta = \frac{\text{Perpendicular }}{\text{Base}},​​

    cosecθ=HypotenusePerpendicular\cosec \theta = \frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Perpendicular}}​​

    Solution:
    Given: tanθ=4855\tan \theta = \frac{48}{55}​, so

    Perpendicular = 48, Base = 55

    Hypotenuse =482+552=2304+3025=5329=73 \sqrt{48^2 + 55^2} = \sqrt{2304 + 3025} = \sqrt{5329} = 73​​

    So, cosecθ=7348\cosec \theta = \frac{73}{48}
