  1. If cotθ = 4, then the value of
    5sinθ + 3cosθ
    is
    5sinθ − 3cosθ
    1. 1
      9
    2. 1
      3
    3. 3
    4. 9
    5. None of these
Correct Option: E

cotθ = 4 (Given)

Expression =
5sinθ + 3cosθ
5sinθ - 3cosθ

=  5
sinθ
+
3cosθ
sinθsinθ
5
sinθ
-
3cosθ
sinθsinθ

[On dividing numerator and denominator by sinq]
=
5 + 3cotθ
5 - 3cotθ

=
5 + 3 × 4
=
5 + 12
=
- 17
5 - 3 × 45 - 127
