Question 1.

Choose the correct answer

If , then x2 =

A. sin 2α

B. sin α

C. cos 2α

D. cos α


Answer:

We are given that,


We need to find the value of x2.


Take,



Multiply on both sides by tangent.



Since, we know that tan(tan-1 x) = x.


So,



Or



Now, we need to simplify it in order to find x2. So, rationalize the denominator by multiplying and dividing by .




Note the denominator is in the form: (x + y)(x – y), where


(x + y)(x – y) = x2 – y2


So,


…(i)


Numerator:


Applying the algebraic identity in the numerator, (x – y)2 = x2 + y2 – 2xy.


We can write as,




Again using the identity, (x + y)(x – y) = x2 – y2.



…(ii)


Denominator:


Solving the denominator, we get




…(iii)


Substituting values of Numerator and Denominator from (ii) and (iii) in equation (i),





By cross-multiplication,


⇒ x2 tan α = 1 – √(1 – x4)


⇒ √(1 – x4) = 1 – x2 tan α


Squaring on both sides,


⇒ [√(1 – x4)]2 = [1 – x2 tan α]2


⇒ 1 – x4 = (1)2 + (x2 tan α)2 – 2x2 tan α [∵, (x – y)2 = x2 + y2 – 2xy]


⇒ 1 – x4 = 1 + x4 tan2 α – 2x2 tan α


⇒ x4 tan2 α – 2x2 tan α + x4 + 1 – 1 = 0


⇒ x4 tan2 α – 2x2 tan α + x4 = 0


Rearranging,


⇒ x4 + x4 tan2 α – 2x2 tan α = 0


⇒ x4 (1 + tan2 α) – 2x2 tan α = 0


⇒ x4 (sec2 α) – 2x2 tan α = 0 [∵, sec2 x – tan2 x = 1 ⇒ 1 + tan2 x = sec2 x]


Taking x2 common from both terms,


⇒ x2 (x2 sec2 α – 2 tan α) = 0


⇒ x2 = 0 or (x2 sec2 α – 2 tan α) = 0


But x2 ≠ 0 as according to the question, we need to find some value of x2.


⇒ x2 sec2 α – 2 tan α = 0


⇒ x2 sec2 α = 2 tan α


In order to find the value of x2, shift sec2 α to Right Hand Side (RHS).



Putting ,




⇒ x2 = 2 sin α cos α


Using the trigonometric identity, 2 sin x cos x = sin 2x.


⇒ x2 = sin 2α

Substituting the value of cos a,







We have .


So, we can find tan a.





⇒ tan a = 7 …(i)


For cos b,


We know the trigonometric identity,


sin2 b + cos2 b = 1


⇒ cos2 b = 1 – sin2 b


⇒ cos b = √(1 – sin2 b)


Substituting the value of sin b,






We have .


So, we can find tan b.





⇒ tan b = 4 …(ii)


We can write as,



Now, we need to solve Right Hand Side (RHS).


We know the trigonometric identity,



Substituting the values of tan a and tan b from (i) and (ii),





So,

Answer:

We need to find the value of 2 tan-1 |cosec(tan-1 x) – tan(cot-1 x)|.

So, take

Using property of inverse trigonometry,





Now, let y = tan-1 x


So, tan y = x


Substituting the value of tan-1 x and x in the equation,



Put,






Since, we know the trigonometric identity,


1 – cos 2y = 2 sin2 y



Also, sin 2y = 2 sin y cos y



We get,




Since,



Then,




⇒ 2 tan-1 |cosec(tan-1 x) – tan(cot-1 x)| = y


Put y = tan-1 x as let above.


⇒ 2 tan-1 |cosec(tan-1 x) – tan(cot-1 x)| = tan-1 x

So,




Simplifying further,



Taking cosine on both sides,



Using the property of inverse trigonometric function,


cos(cos-1 x) = x




To simplify it further, take square on both sides.



Using algebraic identity,


(x – y)2 = x2 + y2 – 2xy



Simplifying it further,



Shifting all terms at one side,



Using trigonometric identity,


sin2 x + cos2 x = 1


⇒ sin2 x = 1 – cos2 x


We get,

Using the property of inverse trigonometry,



Similarly,



Taking tangent on both sides of the equation,



Using property of inverse trigonometry,


tan(tan-1 A) = A


Applying this property on both sides of the equation,



Simplifying the equation,





Cross-multiplying in the equation,


⇒ xy + 1 = 3(y – x)


⇒ xy + 1 = 3y – 3x


⇒ xy + 3x = 3y – 1


⇒ x(y + 3) = 3y – 1



We need to find positive integral solutions using the above result.


That is, we need to find solution which is positive as well as in integer form. A positive integer are all natural numbers.


That is, x, y > 0.


So, keep the values of y = 1, 2, 3, 4, … and find x.



Note that, only at y = 2, value is x is positive integer.


Thus, the positive integral solution of the given equation is x = 1, y = 2.

We can solve such equation by letting the inner most trigonometric function (here, cos-1 x) as some variable, and solve systematically following BODMAS rule and other trigonometric identities.


Let cos-1 x = y

sin [cot-1 {tan (cos-1 x)}] = sin [cot-1 {tan y}]


Using trigonometric identity,

Also,



We get,



Simplifying it,


⇒ 5x = 1 – 6x2


⇒ 6x2 + 5x – 1 =0


Since, this is a quadratic equation, it is clear that it will have 2 solutions.


Let us check:


We have,


6x2 + 5x – 1 = 0


⇒ 6x2 + 6x – x – 1 = 0


⇒ 6x(x + 1) – (x + 1) = 0


⇒ (6x – 1)(x + 1) = 0


⇒ (6x – 1) = 0 or (x + 1) = 0


⇒ 6x = 1 or x = -1



Hence, there are 2 solutions of the given equation.

Question 10.

Choose the correct answer

The number of real solutions of the equation is

A. 0

B. 1

C. 2

D. infinite


Answer:

We are given with equation:

√(1 + cos 2x) = √2 sin-1(sin x) …(i)


Where -π ≤ x ≤ π


We need to find the number of real solutions of the given equation.


Using trigonometric identity,


cos 2x = cos2 x – sin2 x


⇒ cos 2x = cos2 x – (1 – cos2 x) [∵, sin2 x + cos2 x = 1 ⇒ sin2 x = 1 – cos2 x]


⇒ cos 2x = cos2 x – 1 + cos2 x


⇒ cos 2x = 2 cos2 x – 1


⇒ 1 + cos 2x = 2 cos2 x


Substituting the value of (1 + cos 2x) in equation (i),


√(2 cos2 x) = √2 sin-1(sin x)


⇒ √2 |cos x| = √2 sin-1(sin x)


√2 will get cancelled from each sides,


⇒ |cos x| = sin-1(sin x)


Take interval :


|cos x| is positive in interval , hence |cos x| = cos x.


And, sin x is also positive in interval , hence sin-1(sin x) = x.


So, |cos x| = sin-1(sin x)


⇒ cos x = x


If we draw y = cos x and y = x on the same graph, we will notice that they intersect at one point, thus giving us 1 solution.


∴, There is 1 solution of the given equation in interval .


Take interval :


|cos x| is negative in interval , hence |cos x| = -cos x.


And, sin x is also negative in interval , hence sin-1(sin (π + x)) = π + x.


So, |cos x| = sin-1(sin x)


⇒ -cos x = π + x


⇒ cos x = -π – x


If we draw y = cos x and y = -π – x on the same graph, we will notice that they intersect at one point, thus giving us 1 solution.


∴, There is 1 solution of the given equation in interval .


Take interval :


|cos x| is negative in interval , hence |cos x| = -cos x.


And, sin x is positive in interval , hence sin-1(sin (-π – x)) = -π – x.


So, |cos x| = sin-1(sin x)


⇒ -cos x = -π – x


⇒ -cos x = -(π + x)


⇒ cos x = π + x


If we draw y = cos x and y = π + x on the same graph, we will notice that they doesn’t intersect at any point, thus giving us no solution.


∴, There is 0 solution of the given equation in interval .


Hence, we get 2 solutions of the given equation in interval [-π, π].

Also, we know that x, y < 0.


Substituting xy = 1 in denominator,




And since (x + y) = negative value = integer = -a (say).

Let √tan θ = x


Then, u = cot-1{√tan θ} – tan-1{√tan θ} can be written as


u = cot-1 x – tan-1 x …(i)


We know by the property of inverse trigonometry,



Or,



Substituting the value of cot-1 x in equation (i), we get


u = (cot-1 x) – tan-1 x





Rearranging the equation,




Now, divide by 2 on both sides of the equation.






Taking tangent on both sides, we get

tan(tan-1 x) = x



Recall the value of x. That is, x = √tan θ

Using trigonometric identity,


cos 2θ = cos2 θ – sin2 θ …(ii)


sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1 ⇒ sin2 θ = 1 – cos2 θ …(iii)


Putting value of sin2 θ from equation (iii) in equation (ii), we get


cos 2θ = cos2 θ – (1 – cos2 θ)


Or, cos 2θ = cos2 θ – 1 + cos2 θ


Or, cos 2θ = 2 cos2 θ – 1


Or, 2 cos2 θ = cos 2θ + 1


Replace θ by θ/2.

Using property of inverse trigonometry,



Take Left Hand Side (LHS) of:



Replace A by and B by .






Further solving,



We shall equate LHS to RHS,



Taking cosine on both sides,



Using property of inverse trigonometry,


cos(cos-1 A) = A


So,





By cross-multiplying,


⇒ xy - √(4 – x2) √(9 – y2) = 6 cos θ


Rearranging it,


⇒ xy – 6 cos θ = √(4 – x2) √(9 – y2)


Squaring on both sides,


⇒ [xy – 6 cos θ]2 = [√(4 – x2) √(9 – y2)]2


Using algebraic identity,


(a – b)2 = a2 + b2 – 2ab


⇒ (xy)2 + (6 cos θ)2 – 2(xy)(6 cos θ) = (4 – x2)(9 – y2)


⇒ x2y2 + 36 cos2 θ – 12xy cos θ = 36 – 9x2 – 4y2 + x2y2


⇒ x2y2 – x2y2 + 9x2 – 12xy cos θ + 4y2 = 36 – 36 cos2 θ


⇒ 9x2 – 12xy cos θ + 4y2 = 36 (1 – cos2 θ)


Using trigonometric identity,


sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1


⇒ sin2 θ = 1 – cos2 θ


Substituting the value of (1 – cos2 θ), we get


⇒ 9x2 – 12xy cos θ + 4y2 = 36 sin2 θ

Choose the correct answer

If , then one of the possible values of θ is

A.

B.

C.

D.


Answer:

We are given that,

θ = sin-1 {sin (-600°)}


We know that,


sin (2π – θ) = sin (4π – θ) = sin (6π – θ) = sin (8π – θ) = … = -sin θ


As, sin (2π – θ), sin (4π – θ), sin (6π – θ), … all lie in IV Quadrant where sine function is negative.


So,


If we replace θ by 600°, then we can write as


sin (4π – 600°) = -sin 600°


Or,


sin (4π – 600°) = sin (-600°)


Or,


sin (720° – 600°) = sin (-600°) …(i)


[∵, 4π = 4 × 180° = 720° < 600°]


Thus, we have


θ = sin-1 {sin (-600°)}


⇒ θ = sin-1 {sin (720° – 600°)} [from equation (i)]


⇒ θ = sin-1 {sin 120°} …(ii)


We know that,


sin (π – θ) = sin (3π – θ) = sin (5π – θ) = … = sin θ


As, sin (π – θ), sin (3π – θ), sin (5π – θ), … all lie in II Quadrant where sine function is positive.


So,


If we replace θ by 120°, then we can write as


sin (π – 120°) = sin 120°


Or,


sin (180° - 120°) = sin 120° …(iii)


[∵, π = 180° < 120°]


Thus, from equation (ii),


θ = sin-1 {sin 120°}


⇒ θ = sin-1 {sin (180° - 120°)} [from equation (iii)]


⇒ θ = sin-1 {sin 60°}


Using property of inverse trigonometry,


sin-1 (sin A) = A


⇒ θ = 60°

Replace A by and B by .



Putting this value in equation (i),




Taking tangent on both sides,



Using the property of inverse trigonometry,


tan(tan-1 A) = A



Cross-multiplying, we get



Simplifying the equation in order to find the value of x,



Let us cancel the denominator from both sides of the equation.


⇒ x(x + 1) + (x – 1)(x – 1) = -7[x(x – 1) – (x + 1)(x – 1)]


⇒ x2 + x + (x – 1)2 = -7[x2 – x – (x + 1)(x – 1)]


Using the algebraic identity,


(a – b) = a2 + b2 – 2ab


And, (a + b)(a – b) = a2 – b2


⇒ x2 + x + x2 + 1 – 2x = -7[x2 – x – (x2 – 1)]


⇒ 2x2 – x + 1 = -7[x2 – x – x2 + 1]


⇒ 2x2 – x + 1 = -7[1 – x]


⇒ 2x2 – x + 1 = -7 + 7x


⇒ 2x2 – x – 7x + 1 + 7 = 0


⇒ 2x2 – 8x + 8 = 0


⇒ 2(x2 – 4x + 4) = 0


⇒ x2 – 4x + 4 = 0


We need to solve the quadratic equation to find the value of x.


⇒ x2 – 2x – 2x + 4 = 0


⇒ x(x – 2) – 2(x – 2) = 0


⇒ (x – 2)(x – 2) = 0

B. [–1, 1]

C.

D.


Answer:

We need to find the domain of cos-1 (x2 – 4).

We must understand that, the domain of definition of a function is the set of "input" or argument values for which the function is defined.


We know that, domain of an inverse cosine function, cos-1 x is,


x ∈ [-1, 1]


Then,


(x2 – 4) ∈ [-1, 1]


Or,


-1 ≤ x2 – 4 ≤ 1


Adding 4 on all sides of the inequality,


-1 + 4 ≤ x2 – 4 + 4 ≤ 1 + 4


⇒ 3 ≤ x2 ≤ 5


Now, since x has a power of 2, so if we take square roots on all sides of the inequality then the result would be


⇒ ±√3 ≤ x ≤ ±√5


But this obviously isn’t continuous.


So, we can write as
