Question

If r cosθ = 2√3 and r sinθ = 2, then find the value of r and θ when 0° < θ < 90°.

WBBSE Class X Mathematics Trigonometric Ratio of Complementary Angle 02 Mark 2024

Answer

r cosθ = 2√3 —– (i)

r sinθ = 2      —– (ii)

Dividing (ii) by (i)

r sinθ ÷ r cosθ  = 2 ÷ 2√3

⇒ tan θ = 1 ÷ √3

⇒ tan θ = tan 30°

∴ θ = 30°

Put θ in equation (i)

r cosθ = 2√3

⇒ r cos 30° = 2√3

⇒ r  √3 ÷ 2 = 2√3

⇒ r = 4

∴ r = 4  and θ = 30°
