Trigonometric Identities Question 119

Question: If $ \sin \theta +cosec\theta =2, $ the value of $ {{\sin }^{10}}\theta +cose{c^{10}}\theta $ is

[MP PET 2004]

Options:

A) 10

B) $ 2^{10} $

C) $ 2^{9} $

D) 2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

We have, $ \sin \theta +cosec\theta =2 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{\sin }^{2}}\theta +1=2\sin \theta $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{\sin }^{2}}\theta -2\sin \theta +1=0 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{(\sin \theta -1)}^{2}}=0\Rightarrow \sin \theta =1 $ Required value of $ {{\sin }^{10}}\theta +cose{c^{10}}\theta ={{(1)}^{10}}+\frac{1}{{{(1)}^{10}}}=2 $ .
