Q314

If 6tanA(tanA + 1) = 5 - tanA, given that 0 < A < /2 what is the value of (sinA + cosA)?

If 6tanA(tanA + 1) = 5 - tanA, given that 0 < A < what is the value of (sinA + cosA)?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
6tanA(tanA + 1) = 5 - tanA
6tan2A + 6tanA + tanA = 5
6tan2A + 7tanA = 5
6tan2A + 7tanA - 5 = 0
6tan2A + 10tanA - 3tanA - 5 = 0
2tanA(3tanA + 5) - 1(3tanA + 5) = 0
(2tanA - 1)(3tanA + 5) = 0
tanA = and tanA =
taking tanA
H = √5
