Exercise 3.1

1. Find the radian measures corresponding to the following degree measures:

(i) $\text{2}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}$

Ans: We know that $\text{18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{= }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian

Therefore  ${{1}^{\circ }}=\dfrac{\pi }{180}$ radian 

hence, 

$\text{2}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 25}$ radian  

      $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{36}}$radian

(ii) $\text{-4}{{\text{7}}^{\text{o}}}\text{30 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$

Ans: Here we have,

  $\text{-4}{{\text{7}}^{\text{o}}}\text{30 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ =-47}{{\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}}^{\text{o}}}$   

           $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{95}}{\text{2}}$ degree

Since we know that, $\text{18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{= }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian

Therefore  ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}$ radian 

Hence,

$\text{-}\dfrac{\text{95}}{\text{2}}$ degree$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\left( \dfrac{\text{-95}}{\text{2}} \right)$ radian

                  $\text{=}\left( \dfrac{\text{-19}}{\text{36 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2}} \right)\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$  radian

                  $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{-19}}{\text{72}}\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$radian

Therefore,

$\text{-4}{{\text{7}}^{\text{o}}}\text{30 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ =-}\dfrac{\text{19}}{\text{72}}\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian

(iii) $\text{24}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Ans: We know that,

$\text{18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{= }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian

Therefore  ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}$ radian 

Hence,

$\text{24}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 240}$ radian

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$radian

(iv) $\text{52}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Ans: We know that,

$\text{18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{= }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian

Therefore  ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}$ radian 

Hence,

$\text{52}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{180}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 520}$ radian

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{26 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{9}}$radian

2. Find the degree measures corresponding to the following radian measures

(Use$\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}$ ) 

(i) $\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$

Ans: We know that,

 $\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian$\text{=18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Therefore  $\text{1 radian =}{{\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}}^{\text{o}}}$ 

Hence,

$\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$ radian$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$ degree

              $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{45 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 11}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 4}}$degree

              \[\text{=}\dfrac{\text{45 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 11 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7}}{\text{22 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 4}}\] degree

              $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{315}}{\text{8}}$degree

Further computing,

$\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$ radian$\text{=39}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{8}}$ degree

                $\text{=3}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+}\dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 60}}{\text{8}}$ minutes

Since ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=60 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$

    $\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$ radian $\text{=3}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+22 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ +}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}$minutes

Since  $\text{1 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ =60''}$ 

$\dfrac{\text{11}}{\text{16}}$ radian$\text{ }\!\!~\!\!\text{ =3}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{22 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ 30''}$

(ii) $\text{-4}$

Ans: We know that,

$\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian$\text{=18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Therefore  $\text{1 radian =}{{\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}}^{\text{o}}}$ 

Hence,

$\text{-4}$ radian$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\left( \text{-4} \right)$ degree

                $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7}\left( \text{-4} \right)}{\text{22}}$degree

                $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{-2520}}{\text{11}}$ degree

                $\text{=-229}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{11}}$degree

Since ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=60 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$

We have,

$\text{-4}$ radian$\text{=-22}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+}\dfrac{\text{1 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 60}}{\text{11}}$ minutes                        

               $\text{=-22}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+5 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ +}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{11}}$ minutes

Since $\text{1 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ =60 }\!\!'\!\!\text{  }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$

$\text{-4}$ radian$\text{=-22}{{\text{9}}^{\text{o}}}\text{5 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ 27''}$

(iii) $\dfrac{\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$

Ans: We know that,

$\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian$\text{=18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Therefore  $\text{1 radian =}{{\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}}^{\text{o}}}$ 

Hence,

$\dfrac{\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$ radian$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$ degree

                 $\text{=30}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

(iv)$\dfrac{\text{7 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}$

Ans: We know that,

 $\pi $ radian$\text{=18}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Therefore  $\text{1 radian =}{{\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}}^{\text{o}}}$ 

Hence,

$\dfrac{\text{7 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}$ radian$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{7 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}$

                 $\text{=21}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

3. A wheel makes $\text{360}$ revolutions in one minute. Through how many radians does it turn in one second?

Ans: Number of revolutions the wheel makes in $\text{1}$ minute$\text{=360}$

 Number of revolutions the wheel make in $\text{1}$ second$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{360}}{\text{60}}$

                                                                                   $\text{=6}$

In one complete revolution, the wheel turns an angle of \[\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }\] radian.

Hence, it will turn an angle of $\text{6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ =12 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian, in $\text{6}$ complete revolutions.

Therefore, the wheel turns an angle of $\text{12 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ radian in one second.

4. Find the degree measure of the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius $\text{100}$cm by an arc of length  $\text{22}$  cm.

(Use$\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}$ ) 

Ans: We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}$                                ……(1)

Therefore, 

Substituting $\text{r=100cm}$ ,\[\text{l=22cm}\] in the formula (1) , we have,

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{100}}$ radian

Since $\text{1 radian=}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}$ 

Therefore,

 $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{180}}{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{100}}$ degree

     $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{180 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 22}}{\text{22 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 100}}$degree

     $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{63}}{\text{5}}$ degree

    $\text{=12}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}}$degree

Since  ${{\text{1}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=60 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$ , we have,

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =1}{{\text{2}}^{\text{o}}}\text{36 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$

Hence , the required angle is $\text{1}{{\text{2}}^{\text{o}}}\text{36 }\!\!'\!\!\text{ }$.

5. In a circle of diameter $\text{40}$ cm, the length of a chord is $\text{20}$ cm. Find the length of minor arc of the chord.

Ans: Given that, diameter of the circle$=40$ cm

 Hence Radius $\left( r \right)$ of the circle$=\dfrac{40}{2}cm$

                                                   $=20cm$

Let $\text{AB}$ be a chord  of the circle whose length is $20$ cm.

In $\Delta \text{OAB,}$

$\text{OA=OB}$ 

     $=$ Radius of the circle

     $\text{=20cm}$

Now also, $\text{AB=20cm}$

Therefore, $\Delta \text{OAB}$ is an equilateral triangle.

\[\therefore \text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =6}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\]

     $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$ radian

We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}$                                ……(1)

Substituting $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$  in the formula (1),

       $\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{arc AB}}{\text{20}}$

$\text{arc AB=}\dfrac{\text{20 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}\text{cm}$

Therefore, the length of the minor arc of the chord is $\dfrac{\text{20 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}\text{cm}$ .

6. If in two circles, arcs of the same length subtend angles $\text{6}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$ and $\text{7}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}$ at the centre, find the ratio of their radii.

Ans: Let the radii of the two circles be ${{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}$ and ${{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}$ . Let an arc of length ${{\text{l}}_{\text{1}}}$ subtends an angle of $\text{6}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$ at the centre of the circle of radius ${{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}$ , whereas let an arc of length ${{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}$ subtends an angle of $\text{7}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}$ at the centre of the circle of radius ${{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}$ .

Now, we have,

$\text{6}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$ radian  and 

${{75}^{\circ }}=\dfrac{5\pi }{12}$ radian

We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

\[\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}\]  

$\text{l=r }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$          

Hence we obtain,                   

$\text{l=}\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}}$ 

and  $\text{l=}\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{12}}$

according to the ${{\text{l}}_{\text{1}}}\text{=}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}$ 

thus we have,

$\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}\text{=}\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{12}}$

  ${{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}\text{=}\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\text{5}}{\text{4}}$

 $\dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}}{{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{4}}$

Hence , the ratio of the radii is $\text{5:4}$ .

7. Find the angle in radian through which a pendulum swings if its length is $\text{75}$ cm and the tip describes an arc of length.

(i)  $\text{10}$ cm

Ans: We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}$  

 Given that $\text{r=75cm}$

And here, $\text{l=10cm}$

Hence substituting the values in the formula,

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{10}}{\text{75}}$ radian

  $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{15}}$radian

(ii) $\text{15}$ cm

Ans: We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}$  

 Given that $\text{r=75cm}$

And here, $\text{l=15cm}$  

Hence substituting the values in the formula,

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{15}}{\text{75}}$ radian

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{5}}$radian

(iii) $\text{21}$ cm

Ans: We know that,

 in a circle of radius $\text{r}$ unit, if  an angle $\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }$ radian at the centre is subtended by an arc of length $\text{l}$ unit then

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{l}}{\text{r}}$  

And here, $\text{l=21cm}$

Hence substituting the values in the formula,

$\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{21}}{\text{75}}$ radian

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{7}}{\text{25}}$radian

Exercise 3.2

1. Find the values of the other five trigonometric functions if  $\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}$ , $x$ lies in the third quadrant.

Ans: Here given that,  $\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}$

Therefore we have,

$\text{sec x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{cos x}}$

          $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}} \right)}$

          $\text{=-2}$

Now we know that,$\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$

Therefore we have, $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

Substituting  $\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}$ in the formula, we obtain,

$\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-}{{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{4}}$

            $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{4}}$

   $\text{sin x= }\!\!\pm\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{2}}$

Since $\text{x}$ lies in the ${{\text{3}}^{\text{rd}}}$quadrant, the value of $\sin x$ will be negative.

$\text{sin x=-}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{2}}$

Therefore, $\text{cosec x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{sin x}}$ 

                            $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{2}} \right)}$ 

                            $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{2}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}$ 

Hence ,

 $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}$ 

        $\text{=}\dfrac{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{2}} \right)}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}} \right)}$

        $\text{=}\sqrt{\text{3}}$

And 

$\text{cot x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{tan x}}$

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}$

2. Find the values of other five trigonometric functions if $\text{sin  x=}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}}$  , $\text{x}$ lies in second quadrant.

Ans:

Here given that,  $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}}$

Therefore we have,

$\text{cosec x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{sin x}}$

          $=\dfrac{1}{\left( \dfrac{3}{5} \right)}$

           $=\dfrac{5}{3}$

Now we know that , ${{\sin }^{2}}x+{{\cos }^{2}}x=1$

Therefore we have, $\text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

Substituting  $\sin x=\dfrac{3}{5}$  in the formula, we obtain,

$\text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-}{{\left( \dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1-}\dfrac{\text{9}}{\text{25}}$

         $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{16}}{\text{25}}$ 

   $\text{cos x= }\!\!\pm\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{5}}$

Since $x$ lies in the ${{2}^{nd}}$quadrant, the value of $\cos x$ will be negative.

$\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{5}}$

Therefore, $sec x=\dfrac{1}{\cos x}$ 

                          $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{5}} \right)}$ 

                          $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{4}}$ 

Hence ,

 $\tan x=\dfrac{\sin  x}{\cos x}$ 

        $\text{=}\dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}} \right)}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{5}} \right)}$

        $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{4}}$

And 

$\cot x=\dfrac{1}{\tan x}$

        $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}$

3. Find the values of other five trigonometric functions if   $\text{cot x=}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{4}}$ , $\text{x}$ lies in third quadrant.

Ans: Here given that,  $\cot x=\dfrac{3}{4}$

Therefore we have,

$\tan x=\dfrac{1}{\cot x}$

       $=\dfrac{1}{\left( \dfrac{3}{4} \right)}$

       $=\dfrac{4}{3}$

Now we know that , \[\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x-ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}\]

Therefore we have, $\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

Substituting  $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}$  in the formula, we obtain,

${{\sec }^{2}}x=1+{{\left( \dfrac{4}{3} \right)}^{2}}$

$\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+}\dfrac{\text{16}}{\text{9}}$

             $=\dfrac{25}{9}$ 

   $\text{sec x= }\!\!\pm\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{3}}$

Since $x$ lies in the ${{3}^{rd}}$quadrant, the value of $\sec x$ will be negative.

$\text{sec x=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{3}}$

Therefore, $\cos  x=\dfrac{1}{\sec x}$ 

                         $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{3}} \right)}$ 

                          $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}}$ 

Now  , $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}$ 

Therefore, $\text{sin x=tan xcos x}$ 

 Hence we have, $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}} \right)$   

                                    \[\text{=}\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{5}} \right)\] 

 And 

$\text{cosec x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{sin x}}$

          $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{4}}$

4. Find the values of other five trigonometric functions if $\text{sec  x=}\dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{5}}$  , $\text{x}$ lies in fourth quadrant.

Ans: Here given that,  $\sec x=\dfrac{13}{5}$

Therefore we have,

$\cos x=\dfrac{1}{\sec x}$

        $=\dfrac{1}{\left( \dfrac{13}{5} \right)}$

        $=\dfrac{5}{13}$

Now we know that , $\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x-ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$

Therefore we have, $\text{ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x-1}$

Substituting  \[\text{sec x=}\dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{5}}\]  in the formula, we obtain,

\[\text{ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=}{{\left( \dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{5}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{-1}\]

$\text{ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=}\dfrac{\text{169}}{\text{25}}\text{-1}$

         $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{144}}{\text{25}}$ 

   \[\text{tanx= }\!\!\pm\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{5}}\]

Since $x$ lies in the ${{4}^{th}}$ quadrant, the value of $\tan x$ will be negative.

$\text{tan x=-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{5}}$

Therefore, \[\text{cot x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{tan x}}\] 

                          $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}}$ 

Now  , $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}$ 

Therefore, $\text{sin x=tan xcos x}$ 

 Hence we have, $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{13}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{5}} \right)$   

                                  $\text{=}\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{13}} \right)$ 

 And 

$\text{cosec x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{sin x}}$

            $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{12}}$

5. Find the values of other five trigonometric functions if  $\text{tan x=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}}$ , $\text{x}$ lies in second quadrant.

Ans: Here given that,  $\text{tan x=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}}$

Therefore we have,

$\text{cot x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{tan x}}$

       $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}} \right)}$

       $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{5}}$

Now we know that , $\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x-ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$

Therefore we have, $\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

Substituting  $\text{tan x=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}}$  in the formula, we obtain,

$\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+}{{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+}\dfrac{\text{25}}{\text{144}}$

             $=\dfrac{169}{144}$ 

   $\text{sec x= }\!\!\pm\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{12}}$

Since $x$ lies in the ${{2}^{nd}}$ quadrant, the value of $\sec x$ will be negative.

$\text{sec x=-}\dfrac{\text{13}}{\text{12}}$

Therefore, $\text{cos x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{sec x}}$ 

                          $\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{13}}$ 

Now  , $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}$ 

Therefore, $\text{sin x=tan xcos x}$ 

 Hence we have, $\text{sin x=}\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}} \right)\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{12}}{\text{13}} \right)$   

                                    $=\left( \dfrac{5}{13} \right)$

                               $\text{=cosec}\left( \text{-141}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+144}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}} \right)$

                               $\text{=cosec3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

            $\text{=tan}\left( \text{6 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ +}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{3}} \right)$

         $\text{=3+cosec}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}\text{+3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}$

Since $\text{cosec x}$ repeat its value after an interval of $\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ , 

we have, $\text{cosec}\dfrac{\text{5 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}\text{=cosec}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{6}}$  

L.H.S $=3+2+1$ 

          $=1$ 

          $=$ R.H.S.

Hence proved.

Since $\text{sin x}$ repeat its value after an interval of \[\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }\] ,

Ans: We have,

$\text{sin7}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=sin(4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{)}$

          $\text{=sin4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{cos3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}\text{+cos4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{sin3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}$

Since we know that, $\text{sin}\left( \text{x+y} \right)\text{=sin x cos y+cos x sin y}$ 

Therefore we have,

$Sin 75^o = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt 2}\times \dfrac{\sqrt 3}{2} + \dfrac{1}{\sqrt 2}\times\dfrac{1}{2}$

$Sin 75^o = \dfrac{{\sqrt 3}+1}{2\sqrt 2}$

(ii) $\text{tan1}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}$

Ans: We have,

\[\text{tan1}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=tan}\left( \text{4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{-3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}} \right)\]

        $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{tan4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{-tan3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}}{\text{1+tan4}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{tan3}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}}}$

Since we know, $\text{tan}\left( \text{x-y} \right)\text{=}\dfrac{\text{tan x-tan y}}{\text{1+tan x tan y}}$

Therefore we have,

$\text{tan1}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}}{\text{1+1}\left( \dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}} \right)}$

           $\text{=}\dfrac{\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}\text{-1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}}{\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}\text{+1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}}$

         $\text{=}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{3}}\text{-1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}\text{+1}}$

         $\text{=}\dfrac{{{\left( \sqrt{\text{3}}\text{-1} \right)}^{\text{2}}}}{\left( \sqrt{\text{3}}\text{+1} \right)\left( \sqrt{\text{3}}\text{-1} \right)}$ 

Further computing we have,

$\text{tan1}{{\text{5}}^{\text{o}}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{3+1-2}\sqrt{\text{3}}}{{{\left( \sqrt{\text{3}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{-}{{\left( \text{1} \right)}^{\text{2}}}}$ 

           \[\text{=}\dfrac{\text{4-2}\sqrt{\text{3}}}{\text{3-1}}\]

           \[\text{=2-}\sqrt{\text{3}}\]

6. Prove that $\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-y} \right)\text{-sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-y} \right)\text{=sin}\left( \text{x+y} \right)$

Ans: We know that, $\text{cos}\left( \text{x+y} \right)\text{=cos xcos y-sin xsin y}$ 

$\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-y} \right)\text{-sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-y} \right)\text{=cos}\left[ \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x+}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-y} \right]$

$\text{=cos}\left[ \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}\text{-}\left( \text{x+y} \right) \right]$

Ans: We  know that ,$\text{tan}\left( \text{A+B} \right)\text{=}\dfrac{\text{tan A+tan B}}{\text{1-tan Atan B}}$

and $\text{tan}\left( \text{A-B} \right)\text{=}\dfrac{\text{tan A-tan B}}{\text{1+tan Atan B}}$

L.H.S.$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{tan}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{+x} \right)}{\text{tan}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)}$

Using the above formula,

          $\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=}\dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{+tanx}}{\text{1-tan}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{tanx}} \right)}{\dfrac{\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-tanx}}{\text{1+tan}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{tanx}}}$

                    $\text{=}\dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{1+tan x}}{\text{1-tan x}} \right)}{\left( \dfrac{\text{1-tan x}}{\text{1+tan x}} \right)}$      [ substituting $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{=1}$ ]

                    $\text{=}{{\left( \dfrac{\text{1+tan x}}{\text{1-tan x}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

Ans: Observe that $\text{cos x}$ repeats same value after an interval $\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ 

and $\text{sin x}$ repeats same value after an interval  $\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$.

L.H.S.$\text{=}\dfrac{\text{cos}\left( \text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ +x} \right)\text{cos}\left( \text{-x} \right)}{\text{sin}\left( \text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ -x} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}\text{+x} \right)}$

           $\text{=}\dfrac{\left[ \text{-cos x} \right]\left[ \text{cos x} \right]}{\left( \text{sin x} \right)\left( \text{-sin x} \right)}$

           $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{-co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}}{\text{-si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}}$

Ans: We know that $\text{cot x}$  repeats same value after an interval $2\pi $ .

L.H.S.$=Cos\left( \dfrac{3\pi }{2}+x \right)Cos\left( 2\pi +x \right)\left[ cot\left( \dfrac{3\pi }{2}-x \right)+cot\left( 2\pi +x \right) \right]$

Substituting $\text{tan x=}\dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}$ and

$\text{cot x=}\dfrac{\text{cos x}}{\text{sin x}}$ ,

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=sin xcos x}\left( \dfrac{\text{sin x}}{\text{cos x}}\text{+}\dfrac{\text{cos x}}{\text{sin x}} \right)$

         $\text{=}\left( \text{sin x cos x} \right)\left[ \dfrac{\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}}{\text{sin x cos x}} \right]$

         $\text{=1}$

L.H.S.$\text{=sin}\left( \text{n+1} \right)\text{xsin}\left( \text{n+2} \right)\text{x+cos (n+1)x cos (n+2)x}$

           $\text{=cos}\left[ \left( \text{n+1} \right)\text{x-}\left( \text{n+2} \right)\text{x} \right]$

Ans: We  know that , $\text{cos A-cos B=-2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

$\therefore $ L.H.S.$\text{=cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{+x} \right)\text{-cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)$

               $\text{=-2sin}\left\{ \dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{+x} \right)\text{+}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)}{\text{2}} \right\}\text{.sin}\left\{ \dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{+x} \right)\text{-}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{-x} \right)}{\text{2}} \right\}$

               $\text{=-2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}} \right)\text{sin x}$ 

Since $\text{sin x}$ repeats the same value after an interval $\text{2 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$ , 

we have, $\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}} \right)\text{=sin}\left( \text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ -}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}} \right)$ 

therefore, 

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=-2sin}\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}\text{sin x}$ 

           $\text{=-2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ sinx}$

And $\text{sin A-sin B=2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

$\therefore $ L.H.S.$\text{=si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{6x-si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{4xa}$

               $\text{=}\left( \text{sin 6x+sin 4x} \right)\left( \text{sin 6x-sin 4x} \right)$

               $\text{=}\left[ \text{2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{6x+4x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{6x-4x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]\left[ \text{2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{6x+4x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{6x-4x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]$

               $\text{=}\left( \text{2sin 5x cos x} \right)\left( \text{2cos 5x sin x} \right)$

Now we know that, $\text{sin 2x=2sin x cos x}$ ,

Therefore we have,

                 $\text{=}\left( \text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y} \right)\text{+2}\left( \text{cos x cos y-sin x sin y} \right)$

Simplifying and using the formula,

L.H.S$\text{=1+1+2cos}\left( \text{x+y} \right)$ 

         $\text{=2}\left[ \text{1+cos}\left( \text{x+y} \right) \right]$ 

         $\text{=2}\left[ \text{1+2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\left( \text{x+y} \right)}{\text{2}}\text{-1} \right]$ 

 [since $\text{2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\left( \text{x+y} \right)}{\text{2}}\text{-1=cos}\left( \text{x+y} \right)$ ]

          $\text{=4co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\left( \text{x+y} \right)$ 

Therefore  L.H.S$=$ R.H.S

Hence proved.

4. Prove that:  ${{\left( \text{cos x-cos y} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{+}{{\left( \text{sin x-sin y} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{=4si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x-y}}{\text{2}}$ 

Ans: We know that, $\text{cos}\left( \text{x-y} \right)\text{=cos x cos y+sin x sin y}$ 

L.H.S.$\text{=}{{\left( \text{cos x-cos y} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{+}{{\left( \text{sin x-sin y} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

           $\text{=co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y-2cos x cos y+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y-2sin x sin y}$

           \[\text{=}\left( \text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y+si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{y} \right)\text{-2}\left[ \text{cos x cos y+sin x sin y} \right]\]

Simplifying and using the formula  we get,

         L.H.S $\text{=1+1-2}\left[ \text{cos}\left( \text{x-y} \right) \right]\,\,$

                   $\text{=2}\left[ \text{1-cos}\left( \text{x-y} \right) \right]$

                   $\text{=2}\left[ \text{1-}\left\{ \text{1-2si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\left( \dfrac{\text{x-y}}{\text{2}} \right) \right\} \right]\,$ 

[since  $\text{1-2si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\left( \text{x-y} \right)}{\text{2}}\text{=cos}\left( \text{x-y} \right)$ ]

                   $\text{=4si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\left( \dfrac{\text{x-y}}{\text{2}} \right)$ 

Therefore  L.H.S$=$ R.H.S

Hence proved.

5. Prove that: $\text{sin x+sin 3x+sin 5x+sin 7x=4cos xcos 2xsin 4x}$

Ans: We  know  that $\text{sin A+sin B=2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S}\text{. =sin x+sin 3x+sin 5x+sin 7x}$

            \[\text{=}\left( \text{sin x+sin 5x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{sin 3x+sin 7x} \right)\]      

Using the formula and simplifying,

          $\text{=2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{x+5x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{x-5x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{+2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x+7x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x-7x}}{\text{2}} \right)$       

          \[\text{=2cos 2x}\left[ \text{sin 3x+sin 5x} \right]\]

          \[\text{=2cos 2x}\left[ \text{2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x+5x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x-5x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]\] 

          \[\text{=2cos 2x}\left[ \text{2sin 4x}\text{.cos}\left( \text{-x} \right) \right]\] 

Therefore we have,

\[\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=4cos 2x sin 4x cos x}\] 

           \[=\text{R}\text{.H}\text{.S}\]

6. Prove that: $\dfrac{\left( \text{sin 7x+sin 5x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{sin 9x+sin 3x} \right)}{\left( \text{cos 7x+cos 5x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{cos 9x+cos 3x} \right)}\text{=tan 6x}$

Ans: We  known that,

$\text{sinA+sinB=2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

And $\text{cos A+cos B=2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S}\text{. =}\dfrac{\left( \text{sin 7x+sin 5x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{sin9x+sin3x} \right)}{\left( \text{cos 7x+cos 5x} \right)\text{+}\left( \text{cos9x+cos3x} \right)}$

Using the formula and simplifying,

          $\text{=}\dfrac{\left[ \text{2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{7x+5x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{7x-5x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]\text{+}\left[ \text{2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{9x+3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{9x-3x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]}{\left[ \text{2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{7x+5x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{7x-5x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]\text{+}\left[ \text{2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{9x+3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{9x-3x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]}$

          $\text{=}\dfrac{\left[ \text{2sin 6x}\text{.cos x} \right]\text{+}\left[ \text{2sin 6x}\text{.cos 3x} \right]}{\left[ \text{2cos 6x}\text{.cos x} \right]\text{+}\left[ \text{2cos 6x}\text{.cos 6x} \right]}$

          $\text{=}\dfrac{\text{2sin 6x}\left[ \text{cos x+cos 3x} \right]}{\text{2cos 6x}\left[ \text{cos x+cos 3x} \right]}$

           $\text{=tan 6x}$

Therefore L.H.S$=$ R.H.S

Hence  proved.

7. Prove that: 

$\text{sin 3x+sin 2x-sin x=4sin xcos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}}$

Ans: We know that,

$\text{sin A+sin B=2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)$

And  $\text{sin A-sin B=2sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{A-B}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{A+B}}{\text{2}} \right)$ 

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S}\text{.=sin3x+sin2x-sinx}$

          $\text{=sin 3x+}\left[ \text{2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{2x+x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{2x-x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]\,$

          $\text{=sin 3x+}\left[ \text{2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]$

Since we know that, $\text{sin 2x=2sin xcos x}$ 

$\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=2sin}\dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}}\text{.cos}\dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}}\text{+2cos}\dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}}\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\,\,\,\,\,$

         $\text{=2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\left[ \text{sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{+sin}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right) \right]$

         \[\text{=2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\left[ \text{2sin}\left\{ \dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{+}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right)}{\text{2}} \right\}\text{cos}\left\{ \dfrac{\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{-}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right)}{\text{2}} \right\} \right]\]

          $\text{=2cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{.2sin xcos}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right)$

Therefore 

 $\text{L}\text{.H}\text{.S=4sin xcos}\left( \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{cos}\left( \dfrac{\text{3x}}{\text{2}} \right)$

          $\text{=R}\text{.H}\text{.S}$ 

8.Find $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ ,if $\text{tanx=-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}$ , $\text{x}$ lies in 2nd quadrant.   

Ans: Here, $\text{x}$ is in 2nd quadrant.

Therefore ,

$\text{ }\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}\text{x }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$

i.e,  $\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}<\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}<\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$

hence $\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ lies in 1st quadrant.

Therefore, \[\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\,\,\] and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ are positive.

 Given that $\text{tan x=-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}$

We know that, $\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

$\text{se}{{\text{c}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1+ta}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}$

         $\text{=1+}{{\left( \text{-}\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$ 

         \[\text{=}\dfrac{\text{25}}{\text{9}}\]

As \[\text{x}\] is in 2nd quadrant, $\text{sec x}$ is negative.

Therefore , $\text{secx=-}\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{3}}$ 

Then $\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\text{3}}{\text{5}}$ 

Now we know that, $\text{2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=cos x+1}$ 

Computing we get, $\text{2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{5}}$ 

Hence \[\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{5}}}\] 

Now we know that, $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$ 

Therefore substituting $\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{5}}}$ and computing ,

$\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{2}}{\sqrt{\text{5}}}$ 

Hence ,

$\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}{\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}$ 

          $=2$ 

Thus, the respective values of$\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\text{,tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,$

are $\,\dfrac{2\sqrt{5}}{5},\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{5},\,\,2$ .

9.Find $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ ,if $\cos x\text{=-}\dfrac{1}{\text{3}}$ , $\text{x}$ lies in 3rd quadrant.   

Ans: Here, $\text{x}$ is in 3rd quadrant.

Therefore ,

$\text{  }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ x}\dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$

i.e,  $\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}\text{}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{}\dfrac{\text{3 }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}$

hence $\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ lies in 2nd quadrant.

Therefore, $\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\,\,$ and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ are negative and $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ is positive.

 Given that $\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{1}{\text{3}}$

Now we know that, $\text{2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=cosx+1}$ 

Computing we get, $\text{2co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}$ 

Hence $\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}$ 

Now we know that, $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$ 

Therefore substituting $\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}$ and computing ,

$\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}}$ 

Hence ,

$\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}{\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}$ 

          $\text{=-}\sqrt{\text{2}}$ 

Thus, the respective values of $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\text{,tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,$

are  $\,\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}}\text{,-}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\sqrt{\text{3}}}\text{,}\,\text{-}\,\sqrt{\text{2}}$.

10.Find$\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ ,if $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{1}{4}$ , $\text{x}$ lies in 2nd quadrant.   

Ans: Here, $\text{x}$ lies in 2nd quadrant.

Therefore ,

$\text{ }\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}\text{x }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }$

i.e,  $\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{4}}<\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}<\dfrac{\text{ }\!\!\pi\!\!\text{ }}{\text{2}}$

hence  $\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ lies in 1st quadrant.

Therefore, $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\,\,$ and $\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}$ are positive.

 Given that $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{4}}$

Now we know that, $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$ 

Therefore substituting $\text{sin x=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{4}}$ and computing ,

$\text{cos x=-}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{4}}$ 

since $\text{x}$ lies in 2nd quadrant,  $\text{cos x}$ is negative.

Now we know that, $\text{2si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=1-cos x}$ 

Computing we get, $\text{2si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=1+}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{4}}$ 

Hence $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{8}}}$ 

Now we know that, $\text{si}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x+co}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x=1}$ 

Therefore substituting $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{8}}}$ and computing ,

$\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{4-}\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{8}}}$ 

Hence ,

$\text{tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}{\text{cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}}$ 

          $\text{=}\dfrac{\sqrt{\text{4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}}}{\sqrt{\text{4-}\sqrt{\text{15}}}}$ 

       \[\text{=4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}\] 

Thus, the respective values of $\text{sin}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\text{,cos}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,\text{,tan}\dfrac{\text{x}}{\text{2}}\,$

are  $\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{8}}}\text{,}\sqrt{\dfrac{\text{4-}\sqrt{\text{15}}}{\text{8}}}\text{,4+}\sqrt{\text{15}}$ .
