    Question

    If secθ+tanθsecθ-tanθ=53\frac{\text{sec}\text{θ+\text{tan}\text{θ}}}{{\text{sec}\text{θ-\text{tan}\text{θ}}}}=\frac{5}{3}​, then the value of sin θ is:

    A.

    13\frac{1}{3}​​

    B.

    34\frac{3}{4}​​

    C.

    23\frac{2}{3}​​

    D.

    14\frac{1}{4}​​

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    secθ+tanθsecθtanθ=53\frac{\sec\theta + \tan\theta}{\sec\theta - \tan\theta} = \frac{5}{3}

    Formula Used:

    secθ=1cosθ\theta =\frac 1{\cos \theta} , tan θ=sinθcosθ\theta =\frac{\sin\theta} {\cos \theta}​​

    Solution:
    secθ+tanθsecθtanθ=53\frac{\sec\theta + \tan\theta}{\sec\theta - \tan\theta} = \frac{5}{3}

    ​​1cosθ+sinθcosθ1cosθsinθcosθ=53\frac{\frac 1{\cos\theta} + \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}}{\frac 1{\cos\theta} -\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}} = \frac{5}{3}​​

    1+sinθ1sinθ=53\frac{1 + \sin\theta}{1 - \sin\theta} = \frac{5}{3}​​

    3(1+sinθ)=5(1sinθ)3(1 + \sin\theta) = 5(1 - \sin\theta)​​

    3+3sinθ=55sinθ3 + 3\sin\theta = 5 - 5\sin\theta

    3sinθ+5sinθ=53=23\sin\theta + 5\sin\theta = 5 - 3 = 2

    sinθ=2\sin\theta = 2

    sinθ=14\sin\theta = \frac{1}{4}
