If \(\cot \alpha=1\) and \(\sec \beta=-\frac{5}{3}\), where \(\pi<\alpha<\frac{3 \pi}{2}\) and \(\frac{\pi}{2}<\beta<\pi\), then the value of \(\tan (\alpha+\beta)\) and the quadrant in which \(\alpha+\beta\) lies, respectively are

  1. A \(-\frac{1}{7}\) and \(IV\) \(^{\text {th }}\) quadrant
  2. B \(7\) and \(I ^{ st }\) quadrant
  3. C \(-7\) and \(IV\) \(^{\text {th }}\) quadrant
  4. D \(\frac{1}{7}\) and \(I ^{ st }\) quadrant
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(-\frac{1}{7}\) and \(IV\) \(^{\text {th }}\) quadrant

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\cot \alpha=1, \sec \beta=\frac{-5}{3}, \cos \beta=\frac{-3}{5}, \tan \beta=\frac{-4}{3}\) \(\tan (\alpha+\beta)=\frac{1-\frac{4}{3}}{1+\frac{4}{3} \times 1}=\frac{-1}{7}\)
