Answer:

279/1640

Explanation:

The relations between the various trig functions can be used to find the necessary function values.

Other trig functions

Solving for cos(θ), we have ...

41 cos(θ) = 9

cos(θ) = 9/41 . . . . . divide by 41

The Pythagorean relation tells you ...

sin²(θ) +cos²(θ) = 1 ⇒ sin(θ) = √(1 -cos²(θ))

sin(θ) = √(1 -(9/41)²) = (√(41² -9²))/41 = 40/41

The tangent relation is ...

tan(θ) = sin(θ)/cos(θ) = (40/41)/(9/41) = 40/9

Expression value

The value of the given expression is ...

(sin(θ) -cos(θ))/tan(θ) = (40/41 -9/41)/(40/9) = (31/41)(9/40) = 279/1640

Additional comment

This can also be figured by a suitable calculator or spreadsheet. Output formatted as a fraction is often an option. Here, the result is rational.
