  1. Take the given trigonometric ratio as 13k equation (i).

    sin θ = 5/13 .. .(i) [Given]

    By using the definition write the trigonometric ratio of sin θ and take it as equation

    (ii). In right angled ∆PQR, ∠R = θ Let the common multiple be k.

    ∴ PQ = 5k and PR = 13k

    Find QR by using Pythagoras theorem. PR2 = PQ2 + QR2 … [Pythagoras theorem]

    ∴ (13k)2 = (5k)2 + QR2

    ∴ 169k2 = 25k2 + QR2

    ∴ QR2 = 169k2 – 25k2 = 144k2

    ∴ QR = √(144k2) . . . [Taking square root of both sides] = 12k
