Question : If $3 \tan \theta=2 \sqrt{3} \sin \theta, 0^{\circ}<\theta<90^{\circ}$, then the value of $\frac{\operatorname{cosec}^2 2 \theta+\cot ^2 2 \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta+\tan ^2 2 \theta}$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{4}{13}$

Option 2: $\frac{20}{39}$

Option 3: $\frac{4}{3}$

Option 4: $\frac{20}{27}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{20}{39}$


Solution : $3 \tan \theta=2 \sqrt{3} \sin \theta$
⇒ $3 × \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = 2 \sqrt{3} \sin \theta$
⇒ $\frac{3}{\cos \theta} = 2 \sqrt{3}$
⇒ $\cos \theta = \frac{3}{2 \sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt3}{2}$
⇒ $\theta = 30^{\circ}$
Now, $\frac{\operatorname{cosec}^2 2 \theta+\cot ^2 2 \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta+\tan ^2
