In right angled ∆ABC,
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 2
∠C = θ.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 3
Let the common multiple be k.
∴ BC = 35k and AC = 37k
Now, AC2 = AB2 + BC2 …[Pythagoras theorem]
∴ (37k)2 = AB2+ (35k)2
1369k2 = AB2 + 1225k2
AB2 = 1369k2 – 1225k2
= 144k2
AB = 144k2
AB = 2ghK−−−−−√2 … [Taking square root of both sides]
= 12k

Let the common multiple be k.
AB = 11k and AC = 61k
Now, AC2 = AB2 + BC2 …[Pythagoras theorem]
∴ (61k)2 = (11k)2 + BC2
∴ 3721k2 = 121k2 + BC2
∴ BC2 = 3721k2 – 121k2 = 3600k2
BC = 3600k2−−−−−−√ .. .[Taking square root of both sides]
= 60k

Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 42

Question 1.
In right angled ∆PQR, ∠Q = 900. Therefore ∠P and ∠R are complementary angles of each other. Verify the following ratios.

i. sin θ = cos (90 – θ)
ii. cos θ = sin (90 – θ)
iii. sin 30° = cos (90° – 30°) = cos 60°
iv. cos 30° = sin (90° – 30°) = sin 60° (Textbook pg. no. 107)
Solution:
In ∆PQR, ∠Q = 90°, ∠P = θ
∴ ∠R = 90 – θ
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 43
i. sin θ = cos (90 – θ)
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 44
ii. cos θ = sin (90 – θ)
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 45

iii. Let ∠P = θ = 30°
∴ ∠R = 90° – 30°
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 46
sin 30° = cos (90° – 30°) … [From (i) and (ii)]
sin 30° = cos 60°

iv. cos 30° = sin (90° – 30°) = sin 60°
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 47
∴ cos 30° = sin (90° – 30°) .,.[From (i) and (ii)]
∴ cos 30° = sin 60°

Question 2.
In right angled ∆PQR, ∠Q = 90°, ∠R = θ and if sin θ = 513, then find cos θ and tan θ. (Textbook pg. no. 110)
Solution:

i. Take the given trigonometric ratio as 13k equation (i).
sin θ = 513 .. .(i)[Given]
By using the definition write the trigonometric ratio of sin O and take it as equation (ii).
In right angled ∆PQR, ∠R = θ
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 50
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 48
Let the common multiple be k.
∴ PQ = 5k and PR = 13k
Find QR by using Pythagoras theorem.
PR2 = PQ2 + QR2 … [Pythagoras theorem]
∴ (13k)2 = (5k)2 + QR2
∴ 169k2 = 25k2 + QR2
∴ QR2 = 169k2 – 25k2
= 144k2
∴ QR = 144k2−−−−−√ . . . [Taking square root of both sides]
= 12k
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Trigonometry Practice Set 8.2 49

Question 3.
While solving the above Illustrative example, why the lengths of PQ and PR are taken 5k and 13k? (Textbook pg. no. 111)
Solution:

PQPR = 513 … [Given]
Here, the ratio of the lengths of sides PQ and PR is 5 : 13.
The actual lengths of the sides can be any multiple of the ratio. Hence, we consider the multiple k while solving.

Question 4.
While solving the above illustrative example, can we take the lengths of PQ and PR as 5 and 13? If so, then what changes are needed In the writing of the solution. (Tcxtbook pg. no. 111)
Solution:

Yes, we can take lengths of PQ and PR as 5 and 13.
In that case, we will have to take k = 1 and solve the problem accordingly.

Question 5.
Verify that the equation ‘sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1’ is true when θ = 0° or θ = 90°.
(Textbook pg. no. 112)
Solution:

sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1
i. lf θ = 0°,
LH.S. = sin2 θ + cos2 θ
= sin2 0° + cos2 0°
= 0 + 1 …[∵ sin 0° = 0, cos 0° = 1]
= R.H.S.
∴ sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1

ii. If θ = 90°,
L.H.S.= sin2 θ +cos2 θ
= sin2 90° + cos2 90°
= 1 + 0 … [ ∵ sin 90° = 1, cos 90° = 0]
= 1
= R.H.S.
∴ sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1
