The principal solutions of cosec ( ) = -2 are...
Options
- A6 , 5 6
- B5 6 , 7 6
- C7 6 , 11 6
- D6 , 11 6
Correct answer
C. 7 6 , 11 6
Step-by-step solution
Given cosec ( ) = -2 ( ) = - 1 2 We know that ( 6 ) = 1 2 . Since ( ) is negative in the third and fourth quadrants, the principal solutions in the interval [0, 2 ) are given by: = + 6 = 7 6 = 2 - 6 = 11 6 The principal solutions are 7 6 and 11 6 . Answer: 7 6 , 11 6
