Answer #1

Solution-

(a)

Consider the equation of line y = -3x

If a point lies along the terminal side of this line in IVth quadrant(as given in the question) than

Let a point

(1, -3) lies in IVth quadrant along the given line.

Now, the value of sin and cosine will be same along the given as with the point.

So,

sin(\Theta )=\frac{y}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}=\frac{-3}{\sqrt{(1)^2+(-3)^2}}=\frac{-3}{1+9}=-\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}

andcos(\Theta )=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{(1)^2+(-3)^2}}=\frac{1}{1+9}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}

Hence,

sin(\Theta )=-\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}},

cos(\Theta )=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}

(b)

Consider the equation of line y = 3x

If a point lies along the terminal side of this line in IIIrd quadrant(as given in the question) than

Let a point

(-1, -3) lies in IIIrd quadrant along the given line.

Now, the value of sin and cosine will be same along the given as with the point.

So,

sin(\Theta )=\frac{y}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}=\frac{-3}{\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-3)^2}}=\frac{-3}{1+9}=-\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}

and

cos(\Theta )=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}=\frac{-1}{\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-3)^2}}=\frac{-1}{1+9}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}

Hence,

sin(\Theta )=-\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}},

cos(\Theta )=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}
