Question

Simplify the expression: sinA + \(cosA\over tan(90-A)\)

This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2024 Undergraduate CBT 1 Question Paper (29-Aug-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

2sinA

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 2sinA.

sinA + \(cosA\over tan(90-A)\)

tan(90 - A) = cotA

⇒ sinA + \(cosA\over cotA\)

⇒ sinA + \(cosA\over {cosA\over sinA}\)

⇒ sinA + sinA = 2sinA
