Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Cos A = 9/41
Formula used:
cot A = cos A/sin A
Cos2 A + sin2 A = 1
Calculation:
Cos2 A + sin2 A = 1
⇒ ( 9/41)2 + sin2 A = 1
⇒ sin2 A = 1 - 81/1681
⇒ sin2 A = 1600/1681
⇒ sin A = 40/41
⇒ cot A = cos A/sin A
⇒ cot A = 9/40
∴ Option 1 is the correct answer.
