Question Number 153483 by cherokeesay last updated on 07/Sep/21

Commented by mr W last updated on 07/Sep/21

there is no unique answer! examples: sin x=(3/5), cos y=(4/5) ⇒(1/(sin x))+(1/(cos y))=(5/3)+(5/4)=((35)/(12)) sin x=(2/5), cos y=1 ⇒(1/(sin x))+(1/(cos y))=(5/2)+1=(7/2) sin x=(7/(10)), cos y=(7/(10)) ⇒(1/(sin x))+(1/(cos y))=((10)/7)+((10)/7)=((20)/7) ...... you could ask to find the minimum and maximum of (1/(sin x))+(1/(cos y)).

((20)/7)≤(1/(sin x))+(1/(cos y))≤(7/2)

$$\frac{\mathrm{20}}{\mathrm{7}}\leqslant\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{sin}\:{x}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{cos}\:{y}}\leqslant\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$

the question is sin x + cos y not sin x + cos x.

$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{question}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{sin}\:{x}\:+\:\mathrm{cos}\:{y}\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{sin}\:{x}\:+\:\mathrm{cos}\:{x}. \\ $$

my solution : (sinx + cosx)^2 = ((49)/(25)) ⇔ sin^2 x + cos^2 x + 2sinxcosx = ((49)/(25)) ⇒ 2sinxcosx= sin2x = ((49)/(25)) − 1 = ((24)/(25)) (1/(sinx)) + (1/(cosx)) = ((sinx + cosy)/(sinxcosx)) = ((7/5)/((1/2)sin2x)) = ((7/5)/((1/2)×((24)/(25)))) = ((7/5)/((12)/(25))) = (7/5)×((25)/(12)) = ((35)/(12))

$${my}\:{solution}\:: \\ $$$$\left({sinx}\:+\:{cosx}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \:=\:\frac{\mathrm{49}}{\mathrm{25}}\:\Leftrightarrow\: \\ $$$${sin}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}\:+\:{cos}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}\:+\:\mathrm{2}{sinxcosx}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{49}}{\mathrm{25}}\:\Rightarrow\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{sinxcosx}=\:{sin}\mathrm{2}{x}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{49}}{\mathrm{25}}\:−\:\mathrm{1}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{24}}{\mathrm{25}} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{sinx}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{cosx}}\:=\:\frac{{sinx}\:+\:{cosy}}{{sinxcosx}}\:= \\ $$$$\frac{\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{5}}}{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}{sin}\mathrm{2}{x}}\:=\:\frac{\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{5}}}{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\frac{\mathrm{24}}{\mathrm{25}}}\:=\:\frac{\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{5}}}{\frac{\mathrm{12}}{\mathrm{25}}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{5}}×\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{12}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{35}}{\mathrm{12}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

Solution: (1/(sinxcosx))(sinx+cosx)=(7/(5sinxcosx)) ⇒(1/(sinx))+(1/(cosx))=(7/(5sinxcosx)).....(1) (sinx+cosx)^2 =((7/5))^2 ⇒2sinxcosx+1=((49)/(25)) ⇒2sinxcosx=((49)/(25))−1 ⇒2sinxcosx=((24)/(25)) ⇒sinxcosx=((12)/(25)) (1/(sinxcosx))=((25)/(12)) ....(2) form eq(2) in eq(1) (1/(sinx))+(1/(cosx))=(7/5)×((25)/(12))=((35)/(12)) ★

why you replace cos y by cos x ?

$${why}\:{you}\:{replace}\:\mathrm{cos}\:{y}\:{by}\:\mathrm{cos}\:{x}\:? \\ $$
