The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the values of \( \cos \theta \) and \( \tan \theta \) given that \( \sin \theta = \frac{60}{61} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Find \( \cos \theta \)**: We know the Pythagorean identity: \[ \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \] We can rearrange this to find \( \cos^2 \theta \): \[ \cos^2 \theta = 1 - \sin^2 \theta \] 2. **Calculate \( \sin^2 \theta \)**: Given \( \sin \theta = \frac{60}{61} \): \[ \sin^2 \theta = \left(\frac{60}{61}\right)^2 = \frac{3600}{3721} \] 3. **Substitute \( \sin^2 \theta \) into the equation**: Now substitute \( \sin^2 \theta \) into the equation for \( \cos^2 \theta \): \[ \cos^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{3600}{3721} \] To simplify, convert 1 into a fraction: \[ 1 = \frac{3721}{3721} \] Thus, \[ \cos^2 \theta = \frac{3721 - 3600}{3721} = \frac{121}{3721} \] 4. **Take the square root to find \( \cos \theta \)**: \[ \cos \theta = \sqrt{\frac{121}{3721}} = \frac{11}{61} \] 5. **Find \( \tan \theta \)**: We know that: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} \] Substitute the values of \( \sin \theta \) and \( \cos \theta \): \[ \tan \theta = \frac{\frac{60}{61}}{\frac{11}{61}} = \frac{60}{11} \] ### Final Answers: - \( \cos \theta = \frac{11}{61} \) - \( \tan \theta = \frac{60}{11} \)
