If tan θ = 34\frac 3443​​ and θ is an acute angle, find the value of cosecθ.
Question

If tan θ = 34\frac 34​ and θ is an acute angle, find the value of cosecθ.

A.

5/2

B.

53\frac 53

C.

35\frac 35

D.

25\frac 25

Correct option is B

Given
tan θ = 34\frac 34​​
θ is an acute angle
Formula Used
tanθ=OppositeAdjacentHypotenuse2=Opposite2+Adjacent2cosec θ=HypotenuseOpposite\tan \theta = \frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}} \\\text{Hypotenuse}^2 = \text{Opposite}^2 + \text{Adjacent}^2\\\text{cosec } \theta = \frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Opposite}}\\​​
Solution
Based on tan θ, Opposite side = 3 and Adjacent side = 4
Using Pythagoras theorem:
Hypotenuse = 32+42=9+16=25=5 \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5​​
cosec θ = 53 \frac{5}{3}​​
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (b)
