Plus One Maths Trigonometric Functions 3 Marks Important Questions

Question 1.
i) Find the degree measure corresponding to $\frac { 11 }{ 14 }$ radians.( use π = $\frac { 22 }{ 7 }$) (MARCH-2010)
ii) If cos x = $\frac { -1 }{ 2 }$, x lies in the third quadrant,find sin x and tan x
Answer:
i) Degree measure corresponding to $\frac { 11 }{ 14 }$ radians
= $\frac{11}{14} \times \frac{180}{\pi}=\frac{11}{14} \times \frac{180 \times 7}{22}=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{180}{2}=45^{\circ}$
ii) since x lies in the third quadrant

sin x = –$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
tan x = √3

Question 2.
prove that (MARCH-2010)

Answer:

Question 3.
Showthat (cos x + cos y)² +(sin x + sin y)² =$4 \cos ^{2}\left(\frac{x-y}{2}\right)$ (MARCH-2011)
Answer:
(cos x + cos y)² + (sin x + sin y)²
= cos² x + cos² y + 2cosx cosy + sin² x + sin² y + 2 sin x sin y
= 1+ 1 + 2(cosxcosy + sinxsiny)
= 2 + 2cos(x – y) = 2(1 + cos(x – y))
= $4 \cos ^{2}\left(\frac{x-y}{2}\right)$

Question 1.
Expand cos(x + y) and hence prove (IMP-2010)
i) cos 2x = 1 – 2sin² x
ii) Solve the equation tan² θ + cot² θ = 2
Answer:
i) cos(x + y) = cos x cos y — sinx sin y
Put y = x
cos(x + x) = cos x cosx – sin x sin x
=> cos(2x) = cos² x – sin² x
=> cos(2x) = 1 – sin² x – sin² x = 1 – 2sin² x
ii)

Question 2.
Show that (IMP-2010)

Answer:

Question 3.
i) Find the value of sin($\frac { 31π }{ 3 }$) (MARCH-2011)
ii) Find the principle and general solution of the equation cos x = $\frac {-√3 }{ 2 }$
Answer:

Question 4.
Solve: sin 2x – sin 4x + sin 6x = 0 (IMP-2012)
Answer:
sin 2x + sin 6x – sin 4x = 0
=> 2sin4xcos2x – sin4x = 0
=> sin4x(2cos2x – 1) = 0
=>sin4x = 0 or (2cos2x – 1) = 0

Question 5.
tan x tan 2x tan 3x = tan 3x – tan 2x – tan x (IMP-2012)
Answer:
We have; 3x= 2x + x
Take tan on both sides;

tan 3x(1 – tan 2x tan x) = tan 2x + tan x
tan 3x- tan 3x tan 2x tan x = tan 2x + tan x
tan x tan 2x tan 3x = tan 3x – tan 2x – tan x

Question 6.
i) Evaluate tan($\frac {13π }{ 6 }$) (MARCH-2012)
ii) If tan x = $\frac {1 }{ 2 }$ and x is in the third quadrant, find sinx and cosx.
Answer:
