    The value of \[\frac{\sin R-\cos P}{\sin R+\cos P}\] is:

    A) \[\frac{17}{30}\]

    B) \[\frac{30}{17}\]

    C) \[0\]

    D) \[1\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    From part (1),   \[\cos R=\frac{8}{17}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\sin R=\sqrt{1-{{\cos }^{2}}R}=\sqrt{1-{{\left( \frac{8}{17} \right)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{1-\frac{64}{289}}=\sqrt{\frac{225}{289}}=\frac{15}{17}\]and from part (2),
    \[\cos ec\,\,P=\frac{17}{8}\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\sin P=\frac{8}{17}\]
    \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\cos P=\sqrt{1-{{\sin }^{2}}P}=\sqrt{1-{{\left( \frac{8}{17} \right)}^{2}}}=\frac{15}{17}\]
    So,       \[\frac{\sin R-\cos P}{\sin R+\cos P}=\frac{\left( \frac{15}{17}-\frac{15}{17} \right)}{\left( \frac{15}{17}+\frac{15}{17} \right)}=\frac{0}{(30/17)}=0\]
    So, option [c] is correct.
