Or, At the start of the year, Arun and Ajoy started a business jointly with a capital of Rs. 24,000 and Rs. 30,000 respectively. After some months Arup Invested Rs. 12,000 more in that business. If the profit after the end of the year was Rs. 14030 and Arun got a profit share of Rs. 7130, determine after how many months Arun Invested the amount.

Solution:

At the start of the year, Arun and Ajoy started a business jointly with a capital of Rs. 24,000 and Rs. 30,000 respectively. After some months Arup Invested Rs. 12,000 more in that business. If the profit after the end of the year was Rs. 14030 and Arun got a profit share of Rs. 7130

Let Arun invest Rs. 12,000 more after x months.

Arun’s Capital throughout the year

= Rs. [24000 × 12+12000 x (12-x)]

= Rs. (288000 + 144000 12000x) 

= Rs. (432000 – 12000x) 

ajoy’s Capital throughout the year

= Rs. 30000 x 12 = Rs. 360000

The ratio of Arun’s Capital & ajoy’s Capital

= (432000-12000x): 360000

= 1000(432-12x): 360000

= (432 – 12x): 360 12(36-x): 360 (36 – x): 30

Total profit= Rs. 14030.

∴Arun’s share of profit = 36-x / (36-x)+30 x Rs. 14030.

= 36-x /66-x x Rs. 14030.

∴According to the given problem,

= 14030 x 36-x/66-x = 7130

or, 36-x/66-x  = 7130/14030

= 713/1403

or, 713(66 – x)= 1403(36 – x)

or, 47058 – 713x= 50508 – 1403x

or, 1403x-713x= 50508-47058 

or, 690x = 3450

∴x = 3450/690

= 5

∴ After 5 months Arun invested Rs. 12,000 more.

Or, The velocity of a boat is 8 km/h in the still water. The boat takes 5 hours to cover 15 km downstream and 6 km upstream. Find the velocity of the current. 

Solution: Let the speed of current = x km/hr.

As the speed of the boat = is 8 km/hr.

∴ Speed of the boat with the current = (8 + x) km/hr. 

& Speed of the boat against the current = (8x) km/hr. 

∴ According to the problem,

15/8+x + 22/8-x

or, 15(8-x)+22 (8+x)/(8+x) (8-x) = 5

or, 120-15x+176 + 22x=5 (64 – x²)

or, 296 +7x=320-5x²

or, 5x²+7x-24=0

or, 5x² + 15x- 8x-24 = 0

or, 5x (x+3)-8 (x+3)=0 or, (x+3) (5x-8)= 0 

Either x+3=0                           ∴ x = – 3 (Not possible)

Or, 5x-8=0                              ∴ 5x = 8

∴ X = 8/5

= 1 3/5 km/hr. 


Question 5. √5/√3+√2 – 3√3/√2+√5 + 2√2/√3+√5

Or, If 5 men can harvest jute cultivated in 10 bighas of land in 12 days, how many farmers can harvest jute cultivated in 18 bighas in 9 days? Determine this by applying the variation theorem.

Solution: Let the number of farmers be A,

number of days be B and area of land be C

The number of farmers is in direct variation with the area, of land, when the number of days remains constant.

∴ A ∝ C, when B is constant.

Again, if the area of land remains constant, then the number of farmers is in inverse variation

with the number of days, i.e., Aα 1/B

when C is constant.

∴  According to the theorem on joint variation, A α C/B, when B and C both vary.

i.e., A = K C/B [where, K is non zero constant] ———–(1)

Given A= 5, B = 12 and C = 10

From (1) we get 5 K = 10/12

or, K = 5×12/10          ∴ K = 6

Now, putting the value of K in equation (1) we get A = 6 C/B ——–(2)

If B = 9 and C = 18 then, we get from (2), A =  6 x 18/9

= 12

∴ Required number of farmers = 12.


Question 6. If ay – bx / c = cx – az / b = bz – cy/a, proved that x/a = y/b = z/c.

Solution: ay – bx / c = cx – az / b = bz – cy/a

∴ c(ay – bx) + b(cx – az) + a(bz – cy) / c²+b²+a²

= cay -cbx + bcx – baz +abz – acy / c²+b²+a²

= 0    [using addendo we get]

so, ay – by / c = 0     or, ay – bx = 0

or, ay = by        ∴ y/b = x/a

Again, cx – az / b = 0        or, cx = az            ∴ x/a = z/c

∴ x/a = y/b = z/c [proved]

 

Or, If a,b, and c are in continued proportion, prove that a²b²c²(1/a³ + 1/b³ + 1/c³) = a³+b³+c³

Solution: To prove, a²b²c²(1/a³ + 1/b³ + 1/c³) = a³+b³+c³

Question 7. State and prove Pythagoras’ theorem.

Solution:

Given: ABC is a right-angled triangle whose∠A is a right angle.

To prove: BC²= AB² + AC²

Construction: I draw a perpendicular AD on the

hypotenuse BC from the right angular point A which intersects the side BC at point D.

Proof: In right-angled triangle ABC, AD is perpendicular on the hypotenuse BC

∴ ΔABD and ΔCBA are similar.

Hence AB/BC = BD/AB,        ∴ AB² = BC.BD———-(1)

Again, ΔCAD and AGBA are similar.

Hence, AC/BC = DC/AC,       ∴ AC² = BC.DC

So, by adding (1) and (2), I get, AB²+ AC² = BC.BD + BC.DC

= BC(BD+ DC) = BC.BC= BC²

∴ BC² = AB²+ AC² Proved.

Or, Prove that the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary. 

Solution:

Given: ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral of a circle with center O.

To prove that: ∠ABC + ∠ADC= 2 right angles and <BAD +∠BCD 2 right angles

Construction: A, O, and C, O are joined.

Proof: ∠AOC is the reflex angle at the center and ABC is the angle at the circle arc formed with the circular area ADC.

∴ Reflex∠AOC = 2∠ABC

∴ ∠ABC = 1/2 reflex ∠AOC———(1)

Again, ∠AOC is the angle at the center and ZADC is the angle at the circle formed with the circular area ABC.

∴ ∠AOC = 2∠ADC

∴ ∠ADC = 1/2 ∠AOC———(2)

∴ From (1) and (2), we get∠ABC + ∠ADC 

= 1/2(reflex ∠AOC+ ∠AOC)

= 1/2 x 4 right angles = 2 right angles

 

WBBSE Class 10 Model Question Paper 2023 Mathematics set 9


Similarly by joining B, O and D, O; it can be prove that /BAD + BCD = 2 right angles (Proved)

Alternative proof:

Given: ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.

To prove that: ∠ABC + ∠ADC= 2 right angles and ∠BAD + ∠BCD 2 right angles

Construction: Two diagonals AC and BD are drawn.

Proof: ∠ADB = ∠ACB [angle in the same segment of the circle] Again, BAC = BDC [angle in the same segment of the circle]

Again, ∠ADC = ∠ADB + ∠BDC=∠ACB + <BAC

∴ ∠ADC + ∠ABC = ∠ACB + ∠BAC + ∠ABC

∴ ∠ADC + ∠ABC= 2 right angles [sumof there angles of a triangle is 180°]

Similarly, we can prove that ∠BAD + ∠BCD = 2 right angles. Proved.

Question 8. ABCD is a trapezium of which AB || DC; a straight line parallel to AB intersects AD and BC at the points E and F respectively. Prove that AE: ED = BE: FC. 

Solution:

Given: AB | DC in the trapezium ABCD; the straight line parallel to AB has intersected AD and BC at the points E and F respectively.

To prove: AE: ED = BF: FC.

Construction: I joined A, C which has intersected EF at the point G.

Proof: In ΔADC, DC || EF

So, from Thales theorem, we get, AE/ED

= AG/GC ———(1)

Again, in ΔACB, AB || FG

∴ From Thales theorem, we get, AG/GC

= BF/FC ———(2)

So, from (1) and (2), we get AE/ED = BF/FC

∴ AE ED = BF: FC

3. Height of a right circular cylinder is twice of its radius. If the height would be 6 times of its radius, then the volume of the cylinder would be greater by 539 cubic dm. Find the the height of the cylinder.

Solution:

Height of a right circular cylinder is twice of its radius. If the height would be 6 times of its radius, then the volume of the cylinder would be greater by 539 cubic dm.

Let the height of the cylinder = h dcm & radius = r dcm.

∴ h = 2r

Volume of the cylinder = r² x 2r= 2πr³

If height h = 6r, volume = r² x 6r = 6πr³

According to the problem, 6r³-2r³ = 539

4πr³ = 539

or, 4 x 22/7 r3 = 539

∴ r³ = 539 x 7 / 88

= (7/2)³

∴ r= 7/2

∴ 2r= 7.

∴ Height = 2r = 7dcm.

Question 3. Shova, Masud, and Rabeya started a business with a capital of Rs. 3,000, Rs. 3500, and Rs. 2500 respectively. They have decided to divide part 1/3 of the total profit equally and the remaining profit in the ratio of their capital invested. What will be the share of profit of each of them if the amount of profit at the end of the year is Rs. 810? 

Solution:

Shova, Masud, and Rabeya started a business with a capital of Rs. 3,000, Rs. 3500, and Rs. 2500 respectively. They have decided to divide part 1/3 of the total profit equally and the remaining profit in the ratio of their capital invested.

The ratio of capitals of Shova, Masud & Rabeya are

3000 :3500 :2500 = 30: 35: 25=6:7:5

Total Profit = Rs. 810

profit = Rs. 810 x 1/3

= Rs. 270.

Of Rs. 270, each will get = Rs. 270 ÷ 3 = Rs. 90. 

The rest of the profit= is Rs. (810270) = Rs. 540.

Out of Rs. 540,

Shova will get = 6/6+7+5 x Rs. 540 

= 6/18 × 540 

= Rs. 180

Masud will get= 7/18 x Rs. 540 

= Rs. 210

& Rabeya will get = 5/18 x Rs. 540 

= Rs. 150

∴ Shova will get = Rs. (90+ 180) 

= Rs. 270

Masud will get in total = Rs. (90+210) 

= Rs. 300

& Rabeya will get in total = Rs. (90+150) 

= Rs. 240

Ratio of Capitals of Shakil & Mohuya throughout the year

= Rs. (30,000 12+ 40000 6): Rs. (50,000 6+ 40,000 6)

= Rs. (3,60,000+ 2,40,000): Rs. (3,00,000+ 2,40,000)

= 6,00,000 5,40,000 

= 60 :54 = 10:9

Total profit= Rs. 19,000

Shakil will get = 10/10+9 Rs. 19,000 

= Rs. 10/19 19,000 

= Rs. 10,000. Ans.

Question 5. Prove that if two circles touch each other externally, then the point of contact will lie on the line joining the two centers.

Solution: 

Given: Two circles with centers A and B touch each other at a point P. To prove A, P, and B are collinear.

Construction: A, P, and B, P are joined

Proof: Two circles with centers A and B touch each other at a point P.

∴ There exists a common tangent at point P.

Let ST is the common tangent, which touches both circles at point P.

∴ ST is the tangent of a circle with center A and AP is the radius through the point of contact

∴ AP ⊥ ST

Again, ST is tangent to the circle with center B and BP is the radius through the point of contact.

∴ BP ⊥ ST

∴ AP and BP are both perpendicular to ST at some point P.

Question 8. Three spheres made of copper with radii of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm are melted and a large sphere is made. What is the length of the radius of the large sphere?

Solution:

Given

Three spheres made of copper with radii of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm are melted and a large sphere is made.

Volume of 1st sphere with radius 3 cm = π (3)³ cu cm.

The volume of the 2nd sphere with a radius of 4 cm = 4/3 π (4)³ cu cm.

& Volume of 3rd sphere with radius 5 cm = 4/3 π (5) cu cm.

Total volume of 3 small spheres = 4/3  π (3)³+ 4/3  π (4)³ + 4/3  π (5)³

= π(33 +43 +53) cu cm.

= π(27 +64 +125) cu.cm.

= 4/3 π x 216 cu cm.

Now, let the radius of the new big sphere = R cm.

Its volume = 4/3 πR³

According to the problem,

4/3πr³ = 4/3 π x 216

∴ R3 = 216

∴ R = 3√216

= 6 cm.

The length of the radius of the large sphere = 6 cm.

 

Or, If the length of the radius of the base is 12 meters and the height is 5 meters, what will be the cost to make a tent in the shape of the right circular cone at the rate of Rs. 3.50 per sq meter?

Solution:

Given

If the length of the radius of the base is 12 meters and the height is 5 meters

Solution:

Given

Sujata drew a right-angled triangle having a hypotenuse of 13 cm in length, and the difference between the other two sides is 7 cm.

Let AB = x cm & BC = x – 7

∴ AB2+ BC2 = AC2

x2+(7-x)2 = 132

or, x2 +49 + x2 – 14x = 169

or, 2×2- 14x-120 = 0 or, x2-7x-60 = 0

(x-12) (x+5)=0

∴ According to the given conditions,

(10y+x) x = 189

x²+10xy = 189         & y = 2x

10x. 2x + x² = 189

20x²+ x² = 189

Solution: Let = a/b = b/c = c/d = k

∴  a = bk, b = ck, c = dk

 L.H.S. = (b²k²+ c²k² + d²k²) (c²k² + d²k² + d²)

= (c²K4+ c²k² + d²k²) (d²K4+ d²k² + d²k² + d²)

= (d²k + d²K4+ d²k²) (d²K4+ d²K4+ d²k² + d²k² + d²) d²k²(K4+k² + 1) d²(k + k² + 1)

= d4k²(k + k² + 1)²

R.H.S. = (ab + bc + cd)²

= (bkb + ck.c + dk.d)²

= (b²k + c²k + d²k)²

= (d²k6+ d²k³ + d²k)²

= {d²k(K4+ k²+ 1)}²

=d4k²(K4+k² + 1)2 

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Question 7. Prove that the angle at which an arc of a circle subtends at the center is double any angle subtended by it on the circle.

Solution:

Given: ∠AOB is the angle at the center of the circle with center O and ∠ACB is the angle at any point on the circle formed by circular arc ZAPB.

To Prove: ∠AOB = 2∠ACB

According to the length of the circular arc APB, these may be of three types. In 1 and APB are minor arcs. In 2 APB is a semi-circular arc, and in 3 APB is a major arc.

Construction: C and O are joined and CO is extended up to point D.

Proof: In ΔAOC, OA = OC in each case [radii of the same circle]

∴ ∠OCA = ∠OAC

Again, in each case, the side CO of ΔAOC is extended up to point D. Exterior ∠AOD = ∠OAC + ∠OCA

=2∠OCA——(1)                [ ∠OAC = ∠OCA]

In ΔBOC, OB OC in each case [radii of the same circle] Again, since side CO of ABOC is extended up to point D.

∴ Exterior BOD = ∠OCB +∠OBC

= 2∠OCB——-(2)              [ ∠OBC = ∠OCB]

In 1 and 2 ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 2∠OCA + 2∠OCB [we get from 1 & 2]

∴ ∠AOB = 2(∠OCA + ∠OCB) = 2∠ACB (3)

∴ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB


WBBSE Class 10 Model Question Paper 2023 Mathematics set 10

In 4 BOD ∠AOD = 2∠OCB-2∠OCA

Or, ∠AOB = 2∠OCB-2∠OCA

Or, ∠AOB = 2(∠OCB – ∠OCA)

∴ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB. Proved.

 

Or, Prove that the line drawn through the center of a circle bisects a chord, which is not a diameter, is perpendicular to the chord.

not a diameter, and OD, is perpendicular to the chord AB.

To prove: CD, bisects the chord AB, i.e., AD = DB. Construction: O, A, and O, B are joined.

Proof: OD is perpendicular to the chord AB.

∴ ΔODA and ΔODB are right-angled triangles.

∴ In right-angled ΔODA and ΔODB, ΔODA =ΔODB (Each is a right angle)

Hypotenuse OA = Hypotenuse OB [radii of the same circle] and OD is a common side.

∴ ΔODA

ΔODB [By R.H.S. axiom of congruency]

∴ AD = DB [Corresponding sides of the congruent triangles] Proved.


Question 8. A reservoir of 21 dcm in length, 11 dcm in breadth, and 6 dcm in depth are filled half with water. How much dem will the water level be raised if 100 iron balls each of which has a 21 cm diameter be completely immersed in it?

Solution:

Given

A reservoir of 21 dcm in length, 11 dcm in breadth, and 6 dcm in depth are filled half with water.

Radius of cylinder (r) = 21/2 cm. 

The volume of one cylinder π(21/2)² x 20 cu cm.

The volume of 100 cylinders = 100 x π x (21/2)² x 20 cu cm.

Let the level of water increase by x dcm. 

The volume of 100 cylinder = Volume of increased water

or, 100 x л x (21/2)² x 20

= 210 x 110 x 10x

x = 100 x 22/7 x 21/2 x 21/2 x 20  /  210 x 110 x 10

= 30 cm 

= 3 dcm.

 

Or, The ratio of the height of a right circular solid cylinder and the length of the radius of the base is 3:1. If the volume of the cylinder is 1029 π cubic cm, what will be the total surface area of the cylinder?

Solution:

Given

The ratio of the height of a right circular solid cylinder and the length of the radius of the base is 3:1. If the volume of the cylinder is 1029 π cubic cm,

Let height = 3x, and radius = x

∴ Volume = x². 3x = 1029

∴ 3x² = 1029

x³= 343 

∴ x = 7

∴ radius = 7 cm, height = 3 x 7 = 21 cm.

Total surface area

= 2 Area of base + Surface area

= 2 πг² + 2πгh

= 2лr(г + h)

= 2 x 22/7 x 7(7+21)

= 44 x 28 sq cm. 

= 1232 sq cm.

Total surface area of the cylinder = 1232 sq cm.

In ΔABC, from a point at the top of a building of 60 metres height, it is observed that the angles of depression of the top and foot of the tower are 30° and 60° respectively.rom a point at the top of a building of 60 metres height, it is observed that the angles of depression of the top and foot of the tower are 30° and 60° respectively.

tan60° = \(\frac{AB}{BC}\)

∴ \(\sqrt{3}=\frac{60}{B C}\)

∴ \(B C=\frac{60}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{60 \sqrt{3}}{3}\)

= 20 √3 m.

∴ DE = 20 √3

In △ADE, tan30° = \(\frac{AD}{DE}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{A D}{20 \sqrt{3}}\)

∴ √3  AD = 20√3

∴BC= DB = AB – AD

=60-20 = 40 m.

On moving 7 √3 metres from the post along the bank, it is found that the tree makes an angle of 60° at that point with respect to this bank. Let us find the width of the river.

Solution:

A palm tree stands on the bank of a river. A post is fixed in the earth on the other bank just opposite the palm tree. On moving 7 √3 metres from the post along the bank, it is found that the tree makes an angle of 60° at that point with respect to this bank.

Here AB is the width of the river

In △ABC,

tan C = \frac{AB}{BC}

or, \tan 60^{\circ}=\frac{A B}{7 \sqrt{3}}

∴ √3 = \frac{A B}{7 \sqrt{3}}

∴ AB = 7√3.√3 = 7 x 3 = 21 m

Solution:

The telegraph post is bent at a point above the ground due to a storm. Its top just meets the ground at a distance of 8 √3 metres from its foot and makes an angle of 30°.

Here PB is the height of the post which is bent at A & its top just meets the ground at C, at a distance of 8√√3 m from the foot of the post.

∴ PA = AC, ∠c = 30°

In △ABC,

tan C = \(\frac{AB}{BC}\)

or, tan30° = \(\frac{A B}{8 \sqrt{3}}\)

or, \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{A B}{8 \sqrt{3}}\)

∴ \(A B=\frac{8 \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=8 \mathrm{~m}\)

Now, sin30° = \(\frac{AB}{AC}\)

or, \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{8}{AC}\)

∴ AC = 8 x 2 = 16 m

∴ PA = AC = 16 m

Total height of the post = 16 + 8 = 24 m and the post bent at a height of 8m from the ground.

x√3 = x + 3

or, x√3 –  x = 3  or x(√3 – 1) = 3

∴ x=\frac{3}{\sqrt{3}-1}=\frac{3(\sqrt{3}+1)}{(\sqrt{3}-1)(\sqrt{3}+1)}

∴ x=\frac{3(\sqrt{3}+1)}{3-1}=\frac{3(\sqrt{3}+1)}{2}

∴ h=x+3=\frac{3(\sqrt{3}+1)}{2}+3=\frac{3 \sqrt{3}+3+6}{2}=\frac{9+3 \sqrt{3}}{2}

= \frac{9+3 \times 1.732}{2}=\frac{9+5.196}{2}=\frac{14.196}{2}=7.098 \mathrm{~m}

Question 5. If sec5A = cosec (A + 36°) and 5A is a positive acute angle, let us find the value of A.

Solution.

If sec5A = cosec (A + 36°) and 5A is a positive acute angle

sec5A = cosec(A + 36)

= cosec(90° 5A) = cosec(A + 36°)

or, 90° – 5A = A + 36°

or, 90° – 36° 5A + A

or, 6A = 54°

A = 9°.

Question 1. If sinθ = then let us write the value of cosec/1+cotθ by determining it.

Solution : sinθ =4/5

∴ cosecθ =1/sinθ

=5/4

cot2θ = cosec2θ – 1 = (5/4)²-1

= 25/16-1

= 25-16 / 16

= 9/16

∴ cosθ= √9/16

= 3/4

Now, cosecθ / 1+cotθ = 5/4 / 1+3/4

Question 2. If tanθ = 3/4, then let us show that √(1-sinθ/1+sinθ) = 1/2

Solution: tanθ = 3/4

let AB =3K

& BC = 4K

∴ AC² = AB²+BC²

= (3K)²+(4K)² = 9K²+16K²

= 25K²

.. AC = √25K²

= 5K

∴ sinθ = AB/AC = 3K/5K = 3/5

Now L.H.S = \(\sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{1-3 / 5}{1+3 / 5}}=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{5-3}{5}}{\frac{5+3}{5}}}=\sqrt{\frac{2}{8}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}\)

Question 3. If tanθ = 1, then let us determine the value of 8sinθ+5cosθ/sin³ θ-2cos³θ+7 cosθ

Solution: tanθ = 1

We know, \(\tan \theta=\frac{P}{B}=\frac{A B}{B C}\)

∴ \(\mathrm{AC}^2=\mathrm{AB}^2+\mathrm{BC}^2\)

= \((1 K)^2+(1 K)^2=K^2+K^2=2 K^2\)

∴ \(\mathrm{AC}^2=\mathrm{AB}^2+\mathrm{BC}^2\)

= \((1 K)^2+(1 K)^2=K^2+K^2=2 K^2\)

∴ \(A C=\sqrt{2 K^2}=K \sqrt{2}\)

∴ \(\sin \theta=\frac{P}{H}=\frac{A B}{A C}=\frac{1 K}{\sqrt{2} K}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

& \(\cos \theta=\frac{B}{H}=\frac{B C}{A C}=\frac{1 K}{\sqrt{2} K}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

Now, \(\frac{8 \sin \theta+5 \cos \theta}{\sin ^3 \theta-2 \cos ^3 \theta+7 \cos \theta}\)

= \(\frac{8 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+5 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^3-2\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^3+7 \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=\frac{\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}}{\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2}}-2 \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2}}+\frac{7}{\sqrt{2}}}=\frac{\frac{13}{\sqrt{2}}}{\frac{1-2+14}{2 \sqrt{2}}}\)

= \(\frac{13 / \sqrt{2}}{13 / 2 \sqrt{2}}=\frac{13}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{13}=2\)

or, (cosecθ+cotθ) (√2+1) = 1

∴ cosecθ+cotθ = 1/√2-1 

= (√2+1)/(√2-1)(√2+1) 

= (√2+1)/2-1 = √2+1 


3. If sinθ+cosθ = 1, then let us determine the value of sine x cosθ. 

Solution: sinθ + cosθ = 1

or, (sinθ+cosθ)² = 12

or, sin²θ+ cos²θ + 2sinθ x cosθ = 1

or, 1+2sinθ cosθ = 1          [as sin²θ + cos²θ = 1]

5. If sinθ – cosθ = 7/13
then let us determine the value of sinθ + cosθ.

Solution: (sinθ cosθ)² = (7/13)²

or, sin²θ+ cos²θ – 2sinθ cosθ = 49/169

or, 1 – 2sinθ cosθ = 49/169

or, 1-169 = 2sinθ cosθ

or, 169-49/169 = 2sinθ cosθ

or,  120/169 = 2sinθ cosθ

∴ (sine+cose)²= sin²θ+ cos²θ + 2sinθ cosθ

= 1 + 120/169

= 120+169/169

= 289/169

∴ sinθ+cosθ = √289/169

∴ \(\cos ^2 \theta=1-\sin ^2 \theta=1-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

∴  \(\tan ^2 \theta=\frac{\sin ^2 \theta}{\cos ^2 \theta}=\frac{1 / 2}{1 / 2}=1\)

or, \(\frac{1}{\sin ^2 A}=\frac{m^2+n^2}{n^2}\)

or, \(\sin ^2 A=\frac{n^2}{m^2+n^2}\)

∴ \(\sin A=\frac{n}{\sqrt{m^2+n^2}}\)

Again, \(\sec ^2 A-\tan ^2 A=1\)

or, \(\sec ^2 \mathrm{~A}=1+\tan ^{26} \mathrm{~A}\)

= \(1+\frac{n^2}{m^2}\)

= \(\frac{\left(a^4+b^4+2 a^2 b^2\right)-\left(a^4+b^4-2 a^2 b^2\right)}{\left(a^2+b^2\right)^2}=\frac{4 a^2 b^2}{\left(a^2+b^2\right)^2}\)

∴ \(\cos \alpha=\frac{2 a b}{a^2+b^2}\)

⇒ \(\cot =\frac{\cos \alpha}{\sin \alpha}=\frac{2 a b /\left(a^2+b^2\right)}{\left(a^2-b^2\right) /\left(a^2+b^2\right)}\)

= \(\frac{2 a b}{\left(a^2+b^2\right)} \times \frac{\left(a^2+b^2\right)}{\left(a^2-b^2\right)}\)

or, \(\mathrm{x}^2 \mathrm{~K}^2+\mathrm{y}^2 \mathrm{~K}^2=1\)

or, \(\mathrm{K}^2\left(\mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2\right)=1\)

∴ \(K^2=\frac{1}{x^2+y^2}\)

∴ \(K=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\)

Now, sinθ – cosθ = xK – yK

= \(x \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}-y \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\)

1. If r cosθ = 2√3, r sinθ = 2, and 0º <θ <90º, then let us determine the values of both r and θ

Solution:

If r cosθ = 2√3, r sinθ = 2, and 0º <θ <90º

r cosθ = 2√3, r sinθ = 2

⇒ \(\frac{r \sin \theta}{r \cos \theta}=\frac{2}{2 \sqrt{3}}  or, \tan \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\tan 30^{\circ}\)

Solution.

If sinA + sinB = 2 where 0° SA≤ 90° and 0° B≤ 90°,

sinA + sinB = 2 

Greatest value of sinA          ∴ sin A = sin90°      ∴ A= 90°
