If 0 2  x  S and secx = cosecy, then the value of sin (x+y) is :

a

0

b

1

c

12frac{1}{2}

d

13frac{1}{sqrt{3}}

Answer : Option B
Explanation :
secx = cosecy ⇒ cosx = siny sin(π2x)=sinyRightarrow sin left(frac{pi}{2}-x ight)=sin y y=π2xx+y=π2Rightarrow y=frac{pi}{2}-x Rightarrow x+y=frac{pi}{2} sin(x+y)=sinπ2=1 herefore sin (x+y)=sin frac{pi}{2}=1

Alternative:

Let

x = y = 45°

∴ sec x = cosec y

sec 45° = cosec 45° = 2

sin (x + y) = sin (45° + 45°)

= sin 90° = 1
