If cosec x + cot x = 11/2, then the value of tan x is ________
Question \[ \text{If } \cosec x+\cot x=\frac{11}{2}, \] \[ \text{then the value of } \tan x \text{ is} \] Solution Using identity \[ (\cosec x+\cot x)(\cosec x-\cot x)=1 \] \[ \cosec x-\cot x=\frac{2}{11} \] Subtracting, \[ 2\cot x = \frac{11}{2}-\frac{2}{11} \] \[ = \frac{121-4}{22} = \frac{117}{22} \] \[ \cot x=\frac{117}{44} \] Therefore, \[ \tan x=\frac{44}{117}
