Correct Answer – Option 1 : 3
Given:
cosec θ = 13/12
Forumula used:
H = hypotenuse, P = perpendicular, B = base
H2 = P2 + B2
cosecθ = H/P, sinθ = P/H, cosθ = B/P
Calculation:
⇒ cosec θ = 13/12 = H/P
⇒ H = 13, P = 12, B2 = H2 – P2
⇒ B2 = 132 – 122 = 52
⇒ B = 5
⇒ sinθ = 12/13, cosθ = 5/13, and cosec θ = 13/12
putting the value of sinθ and cosθ in \( \frac{{2sin\theta – 3cos\theta }}{{4sin\theta – 9cos\theta }}\)
⇒ \(\frac{{2 \times \frac{{12}}{{13}} – 3 \times \frac{5}{{13}}}}{{4 \times \frac{{12}}{{13}} – 9 \times \frac{5}{{13}}}}\)
⇒ 3
∴ The value of \( \frac{{2sin\theta – 3cos\theta }}{{4sin\theta – 9cos\theta }}\) is 3.
