The value of $\frac{\cos^320^\circ-\cos^370^\circ}{\sin^370^\circ-\sin^320^\circ}$ is :
- A
$\frac{1}{2}$
- B
$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
- ✓

AnswerWe have to evaluate the value.
The formula to be used,
$\text{a}^3+\text{b}^3=(\text{a}+\text{b})(\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2-\text{ab})$
$\text{a}^3-\text{b}^3=(\text{a}-\text{b})(\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2+\text{ab})$
So,
$=\frac{\cos^320^\circ-\cos^370^\circ}{\sin^370^\circ-\sin^320^\circ}$
$=\frac{(\cos20^\circ-\cos70)(\cos^220^\circ+\cos^270+\cos20^\circ\cos70^\circ)}{(\sin70^\circ-\sin20^\circ)(\sin^270^\circ+\sin^220^\circ+\sin70^\circ\sin20^\circ)}$
Now using the properties of complementary angles,
$=\frac{(\sin70^\circ-\sin20)(\sin^270^\circ+\cos^270+\cos20^\circ\cos70^\circ)}{(\sin70^\circ-\sin20^\circ)(\sin^270^\circ+\cos^270^\circ+\sin70^\circ\sin20^\circ)}$
$=\frac{1+\cos20^\circ\cos70^\circ}{1+\sin70^\circ\sin20^\circ}$
$=\frac{1+\cos20^\circ\cos70^\circ}{1+\cos20^\circ\cos70^\circ}$
$=1$
Hence the correct option is $(c)$

- ✓
$\frac{7}{8}$
- B
$\frac{8}{7}$
- C
$\frac{7}{4}$
- D
$\frac{64}{49}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{7}{8}$
Given that : $\tan^2\theta=\frac{8}{7}$ and $\theta$ is an acute angle
We have to find the following expression
$\frac{(1+\sin\theta)(1-\sin\theta)}{(1+\cos\theta)(1-\cos\theta)}$
Since
$\tan^2\theta=\frac{8}{7}$
$\tan^2\theta=\sqrt\frac{8}{7}$
$\tan\theta=\frac{\sqrt8}{\sqrt7}$
Since $\tan\theta=\frac{\text{Perpedicular}}{\text{Base}}$
$\Rightarrow{\text{perpedicular}}=\sqrt{8}$
$\Rightarrow\text{Base}=\sqrt{7}$
$\Rightarrow\text{Hypotenuse}=\sqrt{8+7}$
$\Rightarrow\text{Hypotenuse}=\sqrt{15}$
We know that $\sin\theta=\frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$ and $\cos\theta=\frac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$
We find :
$\frac{(1+\sin\theta)(1-\sin\theta)}{(1+\cos\theta)(1-\cos\theta)}$
$=\frac{\Big(1+\frac{\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{15}}\Big)\Big(1-\frac{\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{15}}\Big)}{\Big(1+\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{15}}\Big)\Big(1-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{15}}\Big)}$
$=\frac{\Big(1-\frac{8}{15}\Big)}{\Big(1-\frac{7}{15}\Big)}$
$=\frac{\frac{7}{15}}{\frac{8}{15}}$
$=\frac{7}{8}$
Hence the correct option is $(a)$

AnswerWe have : $\text{x}\sin\text({90}^\circ-\theta)\cot(90^\circ-\theta)=\cos(90^\circ-\theta)$
Here we have to find the value of $x$
$\begin{bmatrix}\sin(90^\circ-\theta)=\cos\theta \\\cos(90^\circ-\theta)=\sin\theta\\\cot(90^\circ-\theta)=\tan\theta \end{bmatrix}$
We know that
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\sin(90^\circ-\theta)\cot(90^\circ-\theta)=\cos(90^\circ-\theta)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\cos\theta\tan\theta=\sin\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\cos\theta\times\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\sin\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=1$

$\frac{24}{25}$

AnswerCorrect option: C. $\frac{24}{25}$
Consider $\triangle\text{ABC}$ where $\angle\text{B}=90^\circ,\angle\text{A}=\theta.$
Then, $\sec\theta=\frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Base}}$
$=\frac{\text{AC}}{\text{AB}}=\frac{25}{7}$
Let $\text{AC}=25\text{k}$ and $\text{AB}=7\text{k},$ where $k$ is positive.
By Pythagoras Theorem,
$\text{AC}^2=\text{AB}^2+\text{BC}^2$
$\Rightarrow(25\text{k})^2=(7\text{k})^2+\text{BC}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{BC}^2=\text{625k}^2-\text{49k}^2=\text{576k}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{BC}=\text{24k}$
Now, $\sin\theta=\frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$
$\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{AC}}=\frac{24\text{k}}{\text{25k}}=\frac{24}{25}$

If $\cos\theta=\frac{2}{3},$ then $2\sec^2\theta+2\tan^2\theta-7$ is equal to :
AnswerGiven that $\cos\theta=\frac{2}{3}$
We have to find $2\sec^2\theta+2\tan^2\theta-7$
As we are given
$\cos\theta=\frac{2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{Base}=2$
$\Rightarrow\text{Hypotenuse}=3$

$\cos\theta=\frac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$
$\tan\theta=\frac{\text{Perpindicular}}{\text{Base}}$
Now we have to find $2\sec^2\theta+2\tan^2\theta-7$
So,
$2\sec^2\theta+2\tan^2\theta-7$
$=2\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^2+2\Big(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}\Big)^2-7$
$=\frac{18}{4}+\frac{10}{4}-7$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{a}^2\cos^2\theta+\text{b}^2\sin^2\theta+2\text{ab}\sin\theta\cos\theta$
$=\text{a}^2\sin^2\theta+\text{b}^2\cos^2\theta-2\text{ab}\sin\theta\cos\theta=25$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{a}^2\cos^2\theta+\text{b}^2\sin^2\theta+\text{a}^2\sin^2\theta+\text{b}^2\cos^2\theta=25$
$\Rightarrow\ ( \text{a}^2\cos^2\theta+\text{a}^2\sin^2\theta)+(\text{b}^2\sin^2\theta+\text{b}^2\cos^2\theta)=25$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{a}^2(\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta)+\text{b}^2(\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta)=25$

If $A, B$ and $C$ are interior angles of a triangle $\text{ABC},$ then $\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B}+\text{C}}{2}\Big)=$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\cos\frac{\text{A}}{2}$
We know tht in triangle $\text{ABC}$
$\text{A+B+C}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\text{B+C}=180^\circ-\text{A}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{B+C}}{2}=\frac{90^\circ}{2}-\frac{\text{A}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B+C}}{2}\Big)=\sin\Big(90^\circ-\frac{\text{A}}{2}\Big)$
Since $\sin(90^\circ-\text{A})=\cos{\text{A}}$
So,
$\Rightarrow\sin\Big(\frac{\text{B+C}}{2}\Big)=\cos\frac{\text{A}}{2}$
Hence the correct option is $(b)$

If $5\tan\theta-4=0,$ then the value of $\frac{5\sin\theta-4\cos\theta}{5\sin\theta+4\cos\theta}$ is :
- A
$\frac{5}{3}$
- B
$\frac{5}{6}$
- ✓
$\ 0$
- D
$\frac{1}{6}$
AnswerGiven that : $5\tan\theta-4=0.$
We have to find the value of the following expression
$\frac{5\sin\theta-4\cos\theta}{5\sin\theta+4\cos\theta}$
Since $5\tan\theta-4=0$
$\Rightarrow \tan\theta =\frac{4}{5}$
$\tan\theta=\frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Base}}$
We know that :
$\Rightarrow \text{Base}=5$
$\Rightarrow{\text{perpendicular}}=4$
$\Rightarrow{\text{Hypotenuse=}\sqrt{\text{(Perpendicular)}^2+(\text{Base)}^2}}$
$\Rightarrow{\text{Hypotenuse=}}\sqrt{16+25}$
$\Rightarrow{\text{Hypotenuse=}}\sqrt{41}$
Since $\sin\theta =\frac{{\text{Perpendicular}}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$ and $\cos\theta=\frac{\text{Base}}{{\text{Hypotenuse}}}$
Now we find
$\frac{5\sin\theta-4\cos\theta}{5\sin\theta+4\cos\theta}$
$=\frac{5\times\frac{4}{\sqrt{41}}-4\times\frac{5}{\sqrt{41}}}{5\times\frac{4}{\sqrt{41}}+4\times\frac{5}{\sqrt{41}}}$
$=\frac{\frac{20}{\sqrt{41}}-\frac{20}{\sqrt{41}}}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{41}}+\frac{20}{\sqrt{41}}}$
$=0$
Hence the correct option is $(c)$

$\frac{5}{4}$
- B
$\frac{5}{3}$
- C
$\frac{3}{5}$
- ✓
$\frac{4}{5}$
AnswerCorrect option: D. $\frac{4}{5}$
We should proceed with the fact that sum of angles on one side of a straight line is $180^\circ $
So from the given figure,
$\theta+\phi+90^\circ=180^\circ$
So, $\theta=90^\circ-\phi\ \dots(1)$
Now from the triangle $\triangle\text{ABC},$
$\sin\theta=\frac{4}{5}$
Now we will use equation $(1)$ in the above,
$\sin(90^\circ-\phi)=\frac{4}{5}$
Therefore, $\cos\phi=\frac{4}{5}$
So the answer is $(d)$

- ✓
$\frac{1}{7}$

- C
$\frac{2}{7}$

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{1}{7}$
We are given $16\cot\text{x}=12.$We are asked to find the following
$\frac{\sin\text{x}-\cos\text{x}}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}} $
We know that: $\cot\text{x}=\frac{\text{Base}}{\text{Perpendicular}}$
$\Rightarrow{\text{Base}}=3$
$\Rightarrow\text{Perpendicular}=4$
$\Rightarrow \text{Hypotenuse}=\sqrt{(\text{Perpendicular)}^2+\text{(Base)}^2}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Hypotenuse}=\sqrt{16+9}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Hypotenuse}=5$
Now we have
$16\cot\text{x}=12$
$\cot\text{x}=\frac{12}{16}$
$\cot\text{x}=\frac{3}{4}$
We know $\sin\text{x}=\frac{ \text{Perpendicular}}{ \text{Hypotenuse}}$ and $\cos\text{x}=\frac{ \text{Base}}{ \text{Hypotenuse}}$
Now we find
$\frac{\sin\text{x-\cos}\text{x}}{\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}{\frac{4}{5}+\frac{3}{5}}$
$=\frac{\frac{1}{5}}{\frac{7}{5}}$
$=\frac{1}{7}$
Hence the correct option is $(a)$

$\frac{316}{2937}$
- C
$\frac{542}{2937}$
- D
$\text{None of these}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{271}{979}$
We have,
$3 \cos\theta=5\sin\theta$
$\frac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta}=\frac{5}{3 }$
${\cot\theta}=\frac{5}{3} $
In $\triangle\text{ABC}, $

$\text{AC}^2=\text{AB}^2+\text{BC}^2$
$\Rightarrow \text{AC}^2=(3)^2+(5)^2$
$\Rightarrow \text{AC}^2=9+25$
$\Rightarrow \text{AC}^2=34$
$\Rightarrow \text{AC}=\sqrt{34}$
$\therefore \sin\theta=\frac{3}{\sqrt{34}}\ \cos\theta=\frac{5}{\sqrt{34}}\ \sec\theta=\frac{\sqrt{34}}{{5}}$
Now, $\frac{5\sin\theta-2\sec^3+2\cos}{5\sin\theta+2\sec^3-2\cos}$
$=\frac{5\times\frac{3}{\sqrt{34}}-2\Big(\frac{\sqrt{34}}{5}\Big)^3+2\times\frac{5}{\sqrt{34}}}{5\times\frac{3}{\sqrt{34}}+2\Big(\frac{\sqrt{34}}{5}\Big)^3-2\times\frac{5}{\sqrt{34}}}$
$=\frac{\frac{125\times15-2\times34\times34+10\times125}{125\sqrt{34}}}{\frac{125\times15+2\times34\times34-10\times125}{125\sqrt{34}}}$
$=\frac{1875-2312+1250}{1875+2312-1250}$
$=\frac{813}{2937} $
$=\frac{271}{979} $
Thus, $\frac{5\sin\theta-2\sec\theta+2\cos\theta}{5\sin\theta+2\sec\theta-2\cos\theta}=\frac{271}{979}$
