Full solution

Q. tanx=724secx=2524 \begin{array}{l}\tan x=\frac{7}{24} \\ \sec x=\frac{-25}{24}\end{array}
  1. Write sinx\sin x as tanxcosx\tan x \cdot \cos x: Since tanx=sinxcosx\tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}, we can write sinx\sin x as sinx=tanxcosx\sin x = \tan x \cdot \cos x.
  2. Find cosx\cos x from secx\sec x: We know tanx=724\tan x = \frac{7}{24}, but we need cosx\cos x to find sinx\sin x.
  3. Calculate sinx\sin x using tanx\tan x and cosx\cos x: secx\sec x is the reciprocal of cosx\cos x, so cosx=1secx\cos x = \frac{1}{\sec x}.
  4. Calculate sinx\sin x using tanx\tan x and cosx\cos x: secx\sec x is the reciprocal of cosx\cos x, so cosx=1secx\cos x = \frac{1}{\sec x}.Given secx=2524\sec x = -\frac{25}{24}, we calculate cosx=1(2524)=2425\cos x = \frac{1}{(-\frac{25}{24})} = -\frac{24}{25}.
  5. Calculate sinx\sin x using tanx\tan x and cosx\cos x: Sec xx is the reciprocal of cosx\cos x, so cosx=1secx\cos x = \frac{1}{\sec x}.Given secx=2524\sec x = -\frac{25}{24}, we calculate cosx=1(2524)=2425\cos x = \frac{1}{(-\frac{25}{24})} = -\frac{24}{25}.Now we can find sinx\sin x by multiplying tanx\tan x by cosx\cos x: tanx\tan x11.
  6. Calculate sinx\sin x using tanx\tan x and cosx\cos x: secx\sec x is the reciprocal of cosx\cos x, so cosx=1secx\cos x = \frac{1}{\sec x}.Given secx=2524\sec x = -\frac{25}{24}, we calculate cosx=1(2524)=2425\cos x = \frac{1}{(-\frac{25}{24})} = -\frac{24}{25}.Now we can find sinx\sin x by multiplying tanx\tan x by cosx\cos x: tanx\tan x11.Multiplying these together, tanx\tan x22.
