Question:
If $tan \theta=-\frac{4}{3},$ then $sin \theta$ is
If $tan \theta=-\frac{4}{3},$ then $sin \theta$ is
Updated On: Jun 14, 2022
- $-\frac{4}{5} but not \frac{4}{5}$
- $-\frac{4}{5} or \frac{4}{5}$
- $-\frac{4}{5} but not -\frac{4}{5}$
- None of the above
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Since, $tan \theta < 0.$
$\therefore Angle \theta \text{ is either in the second or fourth quadrant.}$
Then, $\hspace15mm sin \theta > 0 or < 0$
$\therefore sin \theta may be \frac{4}{5} or -\frac{4}{5}$
$\therefore Angle \theta \text{ is either in the second or fourth quadrant.}$
Then, $\hspace15mm sin \theta > 0 or < 0$
$\therefore sin \theta may be \frac{4}{5} or -\frac{4}{5}$

- A region in the form of an equilateral triangle (in x-y plane) of height L has a uniform magnetic field 𝐵⃗ pointing in the +z-direction. A conducting loop PQR, in the form of an equilateral triangle of the same height 𝐿, is placed in the x-y plane with its vertex P at x = 0 in the orientation shown in the figure. At 𝑡 = 0, the loop starts entering the region of the magnetic field with a uniform velocity 𝑣 along the +x-direction. The plane of the loop and its orientation remain unchanged throughout its motion.
Which of the following graph best depicts the variation of the induced emf (E) in the loop as a function of the distance (𝑥) starting from 𝑥 = 0? - Two beads, each with charge q and mass m, are on a horizontal, frictionless, non-conducting, circular hoop of radius R. One of the beads is glued to the hoop at some point, while the other one performs small oscillations about its equilibrium position along the hoop. The square of the angular frequency of the small oscillations is given by [ \(\epsilon_0 \)is the permittivity of free space.]

Various trigonometric identities are as follows:
Even and Odd Functions
Cosecant and Secant are even functions, all the others are odd.
- sin (-A) = – sinA,
- cos (-A) = cos A,
- cosec (-A) = -cosec A,
- cot (-A) = -cot A,
- tan (-A) = – tan A,
- sec (-A) = sec A.
Pythagorean Identities
- sin2θ + cos2θ = 1
- 1 + tan2θ = sec2θ

Sum and Difference Identities
- T-Ratios of (x + y)
sin (x+y) = sinx.cosy + cosx.sin y
cos (x+y) = cosx.cosy – sinx.siny - T-Ratios of (x – y)
sin (x–y) = sinx.cosy – cos.x.sin y
cos (x-y) = cosx.cosy + sinx.siny
Product of T-ratios
- 2sinx cosy = sin(x+y) + sin(x–y)
- 2cosx siny = sin(x+y) – sin(x–y)
- 2 cosx cosy = cos(x+y) + cos(x–y)
- 2sinx.siny = cos(x–y) – cos(x+y)
T-Ratios of (2x)
sin2x = 2sin x cos x
cos 2x = cos2x – sin2x
= 2cos2x – 1
= 1 – 2sin2x
