Q:

If tan 0= -(3)/(8), which expression is equivalent to cot 0 ?a) 1/- 3/8b)-3/8 +1c) rad\sqrt(1+(-(8)/(3))^(2))d)(-(3)/(8))^(2)+1

Accepted Solution

A:
As we know tan A = [tex]\frac{1}{Cot A}[/tex]As given , tan 0 = [tex]\frac{-3}{8}[/tex]So, Cot A is inverse of Tan A. So, the value of Cot 0 = [tex]\frac{1}{Tan 0}=\frac{1}{\frac{-3}{8}}[/tex]Option (a) [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{-3}{8}}[/tex] is true.
