How do you find the value of #cot2theta# given #cottheta=4/3# and #pi<theta<(3pi)/2#? Trigonometry Trigonometric Identities and Equations Double Angle Identities 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria Jul 21, 2016 #cot2theta=7/24# Explanation: #cot2theta=(cot^2theta-1)/(2cottheta)# = #((4/3)^2-1)/(2xx4/3)# = #(16/9-1)/(8/3)# = #((16-9)/9)/(8/3)# = #7/9xx3/8# = #7/(3cancel9)xx(1cancel3)/8# = #7/24# Answer link Related questions What are Double Angle Identities?
