Multiple Choice Questions - Set - 3
Question 1:
The value of sin2 5° + sin2 10° + sin2 15° + … + sin2 90° is equal to
(a) 8
(b) 8.5
(c) 9
(d) 9.5
Correct Answer – (D)
= (sin2 5° + sin2 85°) + (sin2 10° + sin2 80°) + … + (sin2 40° + sin2 50°) + sin2 45° + sin2 90°
= (sin2 5° + cos2 5°) + (sin2 10° + cos2 10°) + … + (sin2 40° + cos2 40°) + (1/√2)2 + 1
Question 2 :
If cos (α + β) = 0, then sin (α – β) can be reduced to
(a) cos β
(b) cos 2β
(c) sin α
(d) sin 2α
Correct Answer – (B)
⇒ α + β = 90°
sin (α – β) = sin (α – β + β – β)
= sin (α + β – 2β)
= sin (90° – 2β) = cos 2β
Question 3 :
If 3 cot θ = 2, then the value of tan θ
(a) 2/3
(b) 3/2
(c) 3/√13
(d) 2/√13
Correct Answer – (B)
Question 4 :
Match the Columns:
(a) 1 – A, 2 – C, 3 – B
(b) 1 – C, 2 – A, 3 – D
(c) 1 – B, 2 – A, 3 – E
(d) 1 – B, 2 – D, 3 – A
Correct Answer – (D)
Question 6 :
sin (45° + θ) – cos (45° – θ) is equal to
(a) 2 cos θ
(b) 0
(c) 2 sin θ
(d) 1
Correct Answer – (B)
sin (45° + θ) – cos (45° – θ)
= sin {90° – (45° – θ)} – cos (45° – θ)
= cos (45° – θ) – cos (45° – θ) = 0
Question 7 :
If cos 9α = sin a and 9α < 90°, then the value of tan 5α is
(a) 1/√3
(b) √3
(c) 1
(d) 0
Correct Answer – (C)
⇒ cos 9α = cos (90° – α)
⇒ 9α = 90° – α
⇒ 10α = 90°
⇒ α = 9°
∴ tan 5α = tan 5 × 9°
= tan 45° = 1
Question 8 :
If ∆ABC is right angled at C, then the value of cos (A + B) is
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 1/2
(d) √3/2
Correct Answer – (A)
∴ A + B + C = 180°
A + B = 180° – 90° = 90° (∵ ∠C = 90°)
cos (A + B) = cos 90° = 0
Question 9 :
The value of sin² 30° – cos² 30° is
(a) -1/2
(b) √3/2
(c) 3/2
(d) 2/3
Correct Answer – (A)
Question 10 :
Match the Columns:
(a) 1 – A, 2 – C, 3 – B
(b) 1 – B, 2 – C, 3 – A
(c) 1 – B, 2 – C, 3 – D
(d) 1 – D, 2 – B, 3 – A
Correct Answer – (B)
