(a) 37°
(b) 53°
(c) 90°
(d) 1°
Solution:
(b) 53°
Hint:
tan θ = cot 37°
= cot (90° – 53°)
= tan 53°
The value of θ is 53°

Question 3.
The value of tan 72°. tan 18° is ………
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 18°
(d) 72°
Solution:
(b) 1
Hint:
tan 72° . tan 18° = tan 72° . tan (90° – 72°)
= tan 72° . cot 72°
= tan 72° × \(\frac{1}{tan 72°}\)
= 1

= √3 = tan 60°

Question 5.
If 2 sin 2θ = √3 then the value of θ is ………
(a) 90°
(b) 30°
(c) 45°
(d) 60°
Solution:
(b) 30°
Hint:
2 sin 2θ = √3 ⇒ sin 2θ = \(\frac{√3}{2}\)
sin 2θ = sin 60° ⇒ 2θ = 60°
θ = 30°

Question 6.
The value of 3 sin 70° sec 20° + 2 sin 39° sec 51° is ………
(a) 2
(b) 3
(c) 5
(d) 6
Solution:
(c) 5
Hint:
3 sin 70° sec 20° + 2 sin 39° sec 51°
= 3. sin 70° . sec (90° – 70°) + 2 sin 39° . sec (90° – 39°)
= 3. sin 70° . cosec 70° + 2 sin 39° . cosec 39°
= 3. sin70° × \(\frac{1}{sin 70°}\) + 2 sin 39° × \(\frac{1}{sin 39°}\)
= 3 + 2
= 5

Question 7.
The value of \(\frac{1-tan^{2}45°}{1+tan^{2}45°}\) is ……..
(a) 2
(b) 1
(c) 0
(d) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Solution:
(c) 0
Hint:
\(\frac{1-tan^{2}45°}{1+tan^{2}45°}\) = \(\frac{1-1}{1+1}\)
= \(\frac{0}{2}\) = 0

Question 8.
The value of cosec (70° + θ) – sec (20° + θ) + tan (65° + θ) – cot (25° + θ) is ……..
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 2
(d) 3
Solution:
(a) 0
Hint:
cosec (70° + θ) – sec (20° – θ) + tan (65° + θ) – cot (25° – θ)
= sec [90° – (70° + θ)] – sec (20° – θ) + tan (65° + θ) – tan [90° – (25° – θ)]
= sec (20° – θ) – sec (20° – θ) + tan (65° + θ) – tan (65° + θ)
= 0

Question 9.
The value of tan 1° . tan 2° . tan 3°…. tan 89° is ………
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 2
(d) \(\frac{√3}{2}\)
Solution:
(b) 1
Hint:
tan 1° . tan 2° . tan 3° …….. tan 89°
= tan (90° – 89°). tan (90° – 88°) .tan (90° – 87°) …….. tan 45° . tan (89°)
= cot 89° . cot 88°. cot 87°. ……. tan 45° …….. tan 87°. tan 88°. tan 89°
= 1

Question 10.
Given that sin α = \(\frac{1}{2}\) and cos β = \(\frac{1}{2}\), then the value of α + β is ………
(a) 0°
(b) 90°
(c) 30°
(d) 60°
Solution:
Hint:
sin α = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
sin 30° = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∴ α = 30°
cos β = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∴ β = 60°
∴ α + β = 30° + 60°
= 90°
