Question 2.
State the signs of:

i. tan 380°
ii. cot 230°
iii 468°
Solution:
1. 380° = 360° + 20°
∴ 380° and 20° are co-terminal angles.
Since 0° < 20° <90°0,
20° lies in the l quadrant.
∴ 380° lies in the 1st quadrant,
∴ tan 380° is positive.

ii. Since, 180° <230° <270°
∴ 230° lies in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ cot 230° is positive.

iii. 468° = 360°+108°
∴ 468° and 108° are co-terminal angles.
Since 90° < 108° < 180°,
108° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ 468° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ sec 468° is negative.

Question 3.
State the signs of cos 4c and cos 4°. Which of these two functions is greater?
Solution:

Since 0° < 4° < 90°, 4° lies in the first quadrant. ∴ cos4° >0 …(i)
Since 1c = 57° nearly,
180° < 4c < 270°
∴ 4c lies in the third quadrant.
∴ cos 4c < 0 ………(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
cos 4° is greater.

Question 4.
State the quadrant in which 6 lies if
i. sin θ < 0 and tan θ > 0
ii. cos θ < 0 and tan θ > 0
Solution:

i. sin θ < 0 sin θ is negative in 3rd and 4th quadrants, tan 0 > 0
tan θ is positive in 1st and 3rd quadrants.
∴ θ lies in the 3rd quadrant.

ii. cos θ < 0 cos θ is negative in 2nd and 3rd quadrants, tan 0 > 0
tan θ is positive in 1st and 3rd quadrants.
∴ θ lies in the 3rd quadrant.

Question 5.
Evaluate each of the following:
i. sin 30° + cos 45° + tan 180°
ii. cosec 45° + cot 45° + tan 0°
iii. sin 30° x cos 45° x lies tan 360°

∴ 2cos2 θ – 10 cos θ – cos θ + 5 = 0
∴ 2cos θ(cos θ – 5) – 1 (cos θ – 5) = 0
∴ (cos θ – 5) (2cos θ – 1) = 0
cos θ – 5 = 0 or 2cos θ – 1 = 0
∴ cos θ = 5 or cos θ = 1/2
Since, -1 ≤ cos θ ≤ 1
∴ cos θ = 1/2

Question 7.
Find the acute angle θ such 2cos2 θ = 3sin θ.
Solution:

2cos20 = 3sin θ
∴ 2(1 – sin2 θ) = 3sin θ
∴ 2 – 2sin2 θ = 3sin θ
∴ 2sin2 θ + 3sin 9-2 = θ
∴ 2sin2 θ + 4sin θ – sin θ – 2 = θ
∴ 2sin θ(sin θ + 2) -1 (sin θ + 2) = θ
∴ (sin θ + 2) (2sin θ – 1) = 0
∴ sin θ + 2 = 0 or 2sin θ – 1 = 0
∴ sin θ = -2 or sin θ = 1/2
Since, -1 ≤ sin θ ≤ 1
∴ Sin θ = 1/2
∴ θ = 30° …[ ∵ sin 30 = 1/2]

Question 8.
Find the acute angle 0 such that 5tan2 0 + 3 = 9sec 0.
Solution:

5tan2 θ + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5(sec2 θ – 1) + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5sec2 θ – 5 + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5sec2 θ – 9sec θ – 2 = 0
∴ 5sec2 θ – 10 sec θ + sec θ – 2 = 0
∴ 5sec θ(sec θ – 2) + 1(sec θ – 2) = 0
∴ (sec θ – 2) (5sec θ + 1) = 0
∴ sec θ – 2 = 0 or 5sec θ + 1 = 0
∴ sec θ = 2 or sec θ = -1/5
Since sec θ ≥ 1 or sec θ ≤ -1,
sec θ = 2
∴ θ = 60° … [ ∵ sec 60° = 2]

Question 9.
Find sin θ such that 3cos θ + 4sin θ = 4.
Solution:

3cos θ + 4sin θ = 4
∴ 3cos θ = 4(1 – sin θ)
Squaring both the sides, we get .
9cos2θ = 16(1 – sin θ)2
∴ 9(1 – sin2 θ) = 16(1 + sin2 θ – 2sin θ)
∴ 9 – 9sin2 θ = 16 + 16sin2 θ – 32sin θ
∴ 25sin2 θ – 32sin θ + 7 = 0
∴ 25sin2 θ – 25sin θ – 7sin θ + 7 = 0
25sin θ (sin θ – 1) – 7 (sin θ – 1) = 0
∴ (sin θ – 1) (25sin θ – 7) = 0
∴ sin θ – 1 = 0 or 25 sin θ – 7 = 0

Question 12.
Find the Cartesian co-ordinates of points whose polar co-ordinates are:
i. (3, 90°) ii. (1, 180°)
Solution:

i. (r, θ) = (3, 90°)
Using x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, where (x, y) are the required cartesian co-ordinates, we get
x = 3cos 90° and y = 3sin 90°
∴ x = 3(0) = 0 and y = 3(1) = 3
∴ the required cartesian co-ordinates are (0, 3).

ii. (r, θ) = (1, 180°)
Using x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, where (x, y) are the required cartesian co-ordinates, we get
x = 1(cos 180°) and y = 1(sin 180°)
∴ x = -1 and y = 0
∴ the required cartesian co-ordinates are (-1, 0).
