A Correct answer
Explanation

Given $11\sin^2 x+7\cos^2 x=8$

$\implies 11\sin^2 x+7-7\sin^2 x=8$
$\implies 4\sin^2 x=1$
$\implies \sin^2 x=\dfrac{1}{4}$
$\implies \sin^2 x=\sin^2 \dfrac{\pi}{6}$
$\implies x=n\pi\pm \dfrac{\pi}{6},\forall Z$

If $\alpha, \beta$ are solution of equation a $cos \theta + b sin\theta = c$ then

  1. $sin \alpha + sin \beta = \dfrac{a^2-c^2}{b^2-a^2}$
  2. $cos \alpha + cos \beta = \dfrac{2ac}{a^2 + b^2}$
  3. $cos \alpha . cos \beta = \dfrac{c^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}$
  4. $\sin \alpha.\sin \beta=\dfrac{a^{2}-c^{2}}{b^{2}-a^{2}}$

D Correct answer
Explanation
$a\cos\theta+b\sin\theta=c$

$a^{2}\cos^{2}\theta+b^{2}\sin^{2}\theta+2ab\sin^{2}\theta.\cos\theta=c^{2}$

$a^{2}(1-\sin^{2}\theta)+b^{2}\sin^{2}\theta+2ab\sin\theta.\cos\theta=c^{2}$

$a^{2}-a^{2}\sin^{2}\theta+b^{2}\sin^{2}\theta\sin^{2}\theta+2ab\sin\theta\cos\theta=c^{2}$

$\sin^{2}\theta(b^{2}-a^{2})+2ab\sin\theta.\cos\theta+a^{2}-c^{2}=0$

So
$\sin \alpha.\sin \beta=\dfrac{a^{2}-c^{2}}{b^{2}-a^{2}}$

If $\cos x + cosy + \cos \theta = 0$ and $\sin x + \sin y + \sin \theta = 0$, then $\cot\left(\dfrac{x + y}{2}\right)$ 

  1. $\sin \theta$
  2. $\cos \theta$
  3. $\cot \theta$
  4. $\sin\left(\dfrac{x + y}{2}\right)$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$\cos x+\cos y+\cos \theta=0$

$\cos x+\cos y=-\cos \theta$
$\cfrac { 2\cos(x+y) }{ 2 } \times \cfrac { \cos(x-y) }{ 2 } =-\cos\theta  \longrightarrow 1$
$\sin x+\sin y+\sin \theta=0$
$\sin x+\sin y=-\sin \theta$
$\cfrac { 2\sin(x+y) }{ 2 } \times \cfrac { \sin(x-y) }{ 2 } =-\sin\theta $
Dividing both,
$\cfrac { \cfrac { 2\cos  (x+y) }{ 2 } \times \cfrac { \cos  (x-y) }{ 2 }  }{ \cfrac { 2\sin  (x+y) }{ 2 } \times \cfrac { \sin  (x-y) }{ 2 }  } =\cfrac { -\cos  \theta  }{ -\sin\theta } $
$\cfrac { \cot(x+y) }{ 2 } =\cot\theta $

If $sin:\theta +cos:\theta =p$ and $:tan:\theta +cot:\theta =q$ then $:q\left(p^2-1\right)=$

  1. $\frac{1}{2}$
  2. $2$
  3. $1$
  4. $3$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$sin:\theta +cos:\theta =p$ 
Squaring on both side we get
$\Rightarrow 1+sin:2\theta =p^2$    $[\because sin:2\theta =p^2-1]$
$Tan\theta +\frac{1}{Tan\theta :}=q$

$\frac{Tan^2\theta +1}{2Tan\theta :}=\frac{q}{2}$

$cosec:2\theta =\frac{q}{2}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{p^2-1}=\frac{q}{2}$   $\Rightarrow 2=\left(p^2-1\right)q$

If $\tan { \theta  } .\tan { (120-\theta ) } .\tan { (120+\theta ) } =\dfrac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 3 }  }$, then $\theta $

  1. $\dfrac { n\pi }{ 3 } +\dfrac { \pi }{ 18 } ,n\epsilon Z$
  2. $\dfrac { n\pi }{ 3 } +\cfrac { \pi }{ 12 } ,n\epsilon Z$
  3. $\dfrac { n\pi }{ 12 } +\dfrac { \pi }{ 12 } ,n\epsilon Z$
  4. $\dfrac { n\pi }{ 3 } +\dfrac { \pi }{ 6 } ,n\epsilon Z$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Using the identity tan(theta) * tan(60-theta) * tan(60+theta) = tan(3*theta), we have tan(3*theta) = 1/sqrt(3). Thus, 3*theta = n*pi + pi/6, which simplifies to theta = n*pi/3 + pi/18.

If $f ( x ) = \sin x - \dfrac { x } { 2 }$ is increasing function, then

  1. $0 < x < \dfrac { \pi } { 3 }$
  2. $- \dfrac { \pi } { 3 } < x < 0$
  3. $- \dfrac { \pi } { 3 } < x < \dfrac{\pi}{3}$
  4. None

A Correct answer
Explanation
$f(x)=\sin x-\dfrac {x}{2}$
$f'(x)=\cos x-\dfrac {1}{2} > 0$
$\cos x > \dfrac {1}{2}$
so $x\in \left (0, \dfrac {\pi}{3}\right)$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Using the formulas r1 = s*tan(A/2), r2 = s*tan(B/2), r3 = s*tan(C/2), and r = s*tan(A/2)*tan(B/2)*tan(C/2), the expression simplifies to 0 based on trigonometric identities in a triangle.

In $\Delta ABC$, a, b, c are the lengths of its sides and A, B, C are the angles of triangle ABC. The correct relation is 

  1. $(b-c)sin(\frac{B-C}{2}) =a cos(\frac{A}{2}) $
  2. $(b-c)cos(\frac{A}{2})= a sin(\frac{B-C}{2}) $
  3. $(b+c)sin(\frac{B+C}{2})=a cos(\frac{A}{2}) $
  4. $(b-c)cos(\frac{A}{2}) = 2a sin(\frac{B+C}{2}) $
