Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
cos xo = \(\frac{1}{r}\); \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
By Pythagoras r2 = 12 + x2 - 1
x = \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
tan xo = \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
= \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
cos xo = \(\frac{1}{r}\); \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
By Pythagoras r2 = 12 + x2 - 1
x = \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
tan xo = \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
= \(\sqrt{r^2 - 1}\)
