If cosec θ + cot θ = 1 3 , then θ lies in the

Options

  1. A1 st quadrant
  2. B2 nd quadrant
  3. C3 rd quadrant
  4. D4 th

Correct answer

B. 2 nd quadrant

Step-by-step solution

cos e c θ + cot θ = 1 3 ⇒ 1 + cos θ sin θ = 1 3 3 + 3 cos θ = sin θ Squaring 9 cos 2 θ + 18 cos θ + 9 = 1 - cos 2 θ ⇒ 10 cos 2 θ + 18 cos θ + 8 = 0 ⇒ 5 cos 2 θ + 9 cos θ + 4 = 0 ⇒ 5 cos 2 θ + 5 cos θ + 4 cos θ + 4 = 0 ⇒ 5 cos θ ( cos θ + 1 ) + 4 ( cos θ + 1 ) = 0 ⇒ cos θ = - 1 ,   - 4 5 cos θ = - 4 5 → θ lies in 2 nd or 4 th quadrant But cosec θ + cot &#95
