If sec15θ = cosec15θ (0° < θ < 10°) then the value of θ is?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
$$\eqalign{
& \sec 15\theta = \operatorname{cosec} 15\theta \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{1}{{\cos {{15} }\theta }} = \frac{1}{{\sin 15\theta }} \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{{\sin 15\theta }}{{{\text{cos15}}\theta }} = 1 \cr
& \Rightarrow {\text{tan15}}\theta = 1 \cr
& \Rightarrow {\text{tan15}}\theta = {\text{tan}}{45^ \circ } \cr
& \Rightarrow 15\theta = {45^ \circ } \cr
& \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{{45}}{{15}} \cr
& \Rightarrow \theta = {3^ \circ } \cr} $$
