Question - 1 : -

Evaluate each of the following:

(i) sin (sin-1 7/25)

(ii) Sin (cos-1 5/13)

(iii) Sin (tan-1 24/7)

(iv) Sin (sec-1 17/8)

(v) Cosec (cos-1 8/17)

(vi) Sec (sin-1 12/13)

(vii) Tan (cos-1 8/17)

(viii) cot (cos-1 3/5)

(ix) Cos (tan-1 24/7)

Answer - 1 : -

(i) Given sin (sin-1 7/25)

Now let y = sin-1 7/25

Sin y = 7/25 where y [0, π/2]

Substituting thesevalues in sin (sin-1 7/25) we get

Sin (sin-1 7/25)= 7/25

(ii) Given Sin (cos-1 5/13)

(iii) Given Sin (tan-1 24/7)

(iv) Given Sin (sec-1 17/8)

(v) Given Cosec (cos-1 8/17)

Let cos-1(8/17)= y

cos y = 8/17 where y [0, π/2]

Now, we have to find

Cosec (cos-1 8/17)= cosec y

We know that,

sin2 θ+ cos2 θ = 1

sin2 θ= √ (1 – cos2 θ)

So,

sin y = √ (1 – cos2 y)

= √ (1 – (8/17)2)

= √ (1 – 64/289)

= √ (289 – 64/289)

= √ (225/289)

= 15/17

Hence,

Cosec y = 1/sin y = 1/(15/17) = 17/15

Therefore,

Cosec (cos-1 8/17)= 17/15

(vi) Given Sec (sin-1 12/13)

(vii) Given Tan (cos-1 8/17)

(viii) Given cot (cos-1 3/5)

(ix) Given Cos (tan-1 24/7)
