    If \[sec\theta +tan\theta =2\], then find the value of sin \[\theta \].

    A)  \[\frac{3}{5}\] 

    B)  \[\frac{2}{5}\]

    C)  \[-\frac{3}{5}\]                        

    D)  \[-\frac{2}{5}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    (a):       \[\sec \theta +\tan \theta =2\] \[\therefore \]      \[\sec \theta -\tan \theta =\frac{1}{2}\]     \[\{since(sec\theta +tan\theta )(sec\theta -tan\theta )=1\}\] Solving, we get, \[\sec \theta =\frac{5}{4}\] and \[\tan \theta =\frac{3}{4}\] \[\therefore \]      \[\sin \theta =\frac{\tan \theta }{\sec \theta }=\frac{3}{5}\]
