3.Trigonometrical Ratios, Functions and Identities
normal
If $sin t + cos t = \frac{1}{5}$ then $tan \frac{t}{2}$ is equal to :
A
$-1$
B
$-\frac{1}{3}$
C
$2$
D
Both $(b)$ and $(c)$
Solution
$sin t$ and $cos t$ in tangent of half the angle
$\Rightarrow (3y + 1)(y – 2) = 0$
$ \Rightarrow y = 2$ or $-1/3$ where $y = tan(t/2)$
