If r sinθ= 72\frac{7}{2 }27​​and r cos⁡θ=7√32\frac{7√3}{2}27√3​​, then what will be the value of r?
Question

If r sinθ= 72\frac{7}{2 }​and r cos⁡θ=732\frac{7√3}{2}​, then what will be the value of r?

A.

–1

B.

√3

C.

5

D.

7

Correct option is D

Given:

We are given:
rsinθ=72 rcosθ=732r \sin \theta = \frac{7}{2}\ \\r \cos \theta = \frac{7 \sqrt{3}}{2}​​
We need to find the value of r .

Concept Used:

To find r , we can use the identity:
r2=(rsinθ)2+(rcosθ)2r^2 = (r \sin \theta)^2 + (r \cos \theta)^2​​
which allows us to express r in terms of the given values of rsinθ and rcosθr \sin \theta \ and \ r \cos \theta ​.

Solution:

rsinθ=72 and rcosθ=732r \sin \theta = \frac{7}{2} \ and\ r \cos \theta = \frac{7 \sqrt{3}}{2} ​into the identity:

r2=(72)2+(732)2 r2=494+49×34 r2=494+1474=1964 r=1964=49=7r^2 = \left( \frac{7}{2} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{7 \sqrt{3}}{2} \right)^2\\\ \\r^2 = \frac{49}{4} + \frac{49 \times 3}{4}\\\ \\r^2 = \frac{49}{4} + \frac{147}{4} = \frac{196}{4}\\\ \\r = \sqrt{\frac{196}{4}} = \sqrt{49} = 7​​

The value of r is 7.
