    If \[\cos ec\,A-\cot A=\frac{4}{5},\] then \[\cos ec\,A=\]

    A) \[\frac{47}{40}\]

    B) \[\frac{59}{40}\]

    C) \[\frac{51}{40}\]

    D) \[\frac{41}{40}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]\[\cos ec\,A-\cot A=\frac{4}{5}\] ...(1)
    Also  \[\cos e{{c}^{2}}A-{{\cot }^{2}}A=1\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,(\cos ec\,\,A-\cot A)\,\,(\cos ec\,A+\cot A)=1\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\frac{4}{5}\,(\cos ec\,\,A+\cot A)\,=1\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\cos ec\,\,A+\cot A\,=\frac{5}{4}\]….(2)
    From eqs. (1) and (2). we get \[\cos ec\,\,A\,=\frac{41}{40}\]
