If ` (cos A)/3= (cos B)/4= 1/5, - pi/2 lt A lt 0 and - pi/2 lt B lt 0` then the value of ` 2 sin A + 4 sin B` is

A

4

B

`-2`

C

`-4`

D

0

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Given , `cos A =3/5 and cos B = 4/5`
` angleA and angleB ` lie on IV quadrant
`sin A = -sqrt(1-9/25) and sinB=-sqrt(1-16/25)`
`Rightarrow sin A = -4/5 and sin B = - 3/5`
Now, ` 2 sin A + 4 sin B = 2(-4/5) +4(-3/5)`
` = - 8/5 - 12/5 = -20/5=-4`
