Answer

In right-angled triangle OMP,

By Pythagoras theorem, we get

⇒ OP2 = OM2 + MP2

⇒ MP2 = OP2 - OM2

⇒ MP2 = (15)2 - (12)2

⇒ MP2 = 225 - 144

⇒ MP2 = 81

⇒ MP = 81\sqrt{81} = 9.

(i) sin θ = PerpendicularHypotenuse\dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

= MPOP=915=35\dfrac{MP}{OP} = \dfrac{9}{15} = \dfrac{3}{5}.

Hence, sin θ = 35\dfrac{3}{5}.

(ii) cos θ = BaseHypotenuse\dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

= OMOP=1215=45\dfrac{OM}{OP} = \dfrac{12}{15} = \dfrac{4}{5}.

Hence, cos θ = 45\dfrac{4}{5}.

(iii) tan θ = PerpendicularBase\dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Base}}

= MPOM=912=34\dfrac{MP}{OM} = \dfrac{9}{12} = \dfrac{3}{4}.

Hence, tan θ = 34\dfrac{3}{4}.

(iv) cot θ = BasePerpendicular\dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Perpendicular}}

= OMMP=129=43\dfrac{OM}{MP} = \dfrac{12}{9} = \dfrac{4}{3}.

Hence, cot θ = 43\dfrac{4}{3}.

(v) sec θ = HypotenuseBase\dfrac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Base}}

= OPOM=1512=54\dfrac{OP}{OM} = \dfrac{15}{12} = \dfrac{5}{4}.

Hence, sec θ = 54\dfrac{5}{4}.

(vi) cosec θ = HypotenusePerpendicular\dfrac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Perpendicular}}

= OPMP=159=53\dfrac{OP}{MP} = \dfrac{15}{9} = \dfrac{5}{3}.

Hence, cosec θ = 53\dfrac{5}{3}.
