MCQ
Choose the $INCORRECT$ statement $(s)$.
  • A
    There exists $a$ value of $\theta$ between $0$ & $2 \pi$ which satisfies the equation ; $sin^4 \theta - sin^2 \theta - 1 = 0$.
  • B
    If $tan\,A = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{{4\,\, - \,\,\sqrt 3 }}$ & $tan \,B = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{{4\,\, + \,\,\sqrt 3 }}$  then $tan (A - B)$ must be irrational.
  • C
    The sign of the product $sin\, 2 . sin \,3 . sin\, 5$ is positive.
  • All of the above

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of the above
d
$[A]$  $A$ $=$$\sin 82{\frac{1}{2}^0}\,.\,\cos 37{\frac{1}{2}^0}$ 

$=$$\sin {\frac{{165}}{2}^0}\,.\,\cos {\frac{{75}}{2}^0}$ 

$=$ $\frac{1}{2}\left[ {\sin {{120}^0}\, + \,\sin {{45}^0}} \right]$ 

$=$ $\frac{{\sqrt 6 \, + 1}}{{4\sqrt 2 }}$

$B$ $=$$\sin 127{\frac{1}{2}^0}\,.\sin 97{\frac{1}{2}^0}$ $=$$\frac{1}{2}\,\left[ {\cos {{30}^0}\, - \,\cos {{225}^0}} \right]$ $=$$\frac{1}{2}\,\left[ {\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}\, + \,\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}} \right]$ $=$$\frac{{\sqrt 6 \, + 2}}{{4\sqrt 2 }}$ $= \frac{{\sqrt 3  + \sqrt 2 }}{4}$

$\Rightarrow\, A = B \,\Rightarrow True $

$[B]$      $tan(A-B) =$$\frac{{\tan A\, - \,\tan B}}{{1 + \tan A\,\,\tan B}}$

      $=$$\frac{{\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{{4 - \sqrt 3 }}\, - \,\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{{4 + \sqrt 3 }}}}{{1 + \frac{{\sqrt 3 \,.\,\sqrt 3 }}{{\left( {4 - \sqrt 3 } \right)\,\left( {4 + \sqrt 3 } \right)}}}}$ 

$=$$\frac{{\sqrt 3 \,\left[ {4 + \sqrt 3  - 4 + \sqrt 3 } \right]}}{{16 - 3 + 3}}$

 $= 3/8$ $\Rightarrow$ rational

$[C]$     $sin2 = + ; sin3 = + ; sin5 = -$

$[D]$     $ sin2\theta = \frac{{1 \pm \,\sqrt 5 }}{2}$

$\Rightarrow sin2\theta =$ $\frac{{1 - \sqrt 5 }}{2}$ (not possible)

  $sin2\theta =  \frac{{1 + \,\sqrt 5 }}{2}\,\,\, > \,\,1$ not possible
