MCQ
If $\tan \frac{A}{2} = \frac{3}{2},$ then $\frac{{1 + \cos A}}{{1 - \cos A}} = $
  • A
    $ - 5$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $9/4$
  • $4/9$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4/9$
d
(d) Given that $\tan \frac{A}{2} = \frac{3}{2}$.

$\frac{{1 + \cos A}}{{1 - \cos A}} $

$= \frac{{2{{\cos }^2}\frac{A}{2}}}{{2{{\sin }^2}\frac{A}{2}}} $

$= {\cot ^2}\frac{A}{2} = {\left( {\frac{2}{3}} \right)^2} = \frac{4}{9}$.
