Evaluate sin(3 sin–10.4)
​a)0.56
b)0.31
c)0.64
d)0.9
Correct answer is 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

3sin^-1(x) = sin^-1(3x - 4x^3) when -1/2<=x<=1/2
Definitely 0.4 comes in this range of x and so
3sin^-1(0.4) = sin^-1[3*0.4 - 4*0.4^3]
3sin^-1(0.4) = sin^-1[1.2 - 4*0.064]
3sin^-1(0.4) = sin^-1[1.2 - 0.256]
3sin^-1(0.4) = sin^-1[0.944]
Finally , sin(3sin^-1(0.4)) = sin{sin^-1(0.944)} = 0.944

Sushil Kumar answered
tan−1 x = θ , so that  x=tanθ . We need to determine  cosθ .
sec2θ = 1 + tan2θ = 1 + x2 
∴s ecθ = ±√(1+x2
Then, cos(tan−1x) = cosθ=1/secθ = ±1/√(1+x2)

The number of solutions of the equation sin-1 x - cos-1 x = sin-1(1/2) is
a) 3
b) 1
c) 2
d) infinite.
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Solution:

Given equation is sin^-1(x) - cos^-1(x) = sin^-1(1/2)

We know that sin(x) + cos(x) = √2 cos(x - π/4)

So, sin^-1(x) - cos^-1(x) = π/2 - sin^-1(√2x)

Therefore, the given equation becomes π/2 - sin^-1(√2x) = sin^-1(1/2)

sin(sin^-1(x)) = xsin(π/2 - sin^-1(√2x)) = √[1 - 2x^2]

√[1 - 2x^2] = 1/2

2x^2 = 3/4

x = ±√3/2

Therefore, the given equation has only 1 solution, which is x = √3/2 or x = -√3/2.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Nikita Singh answered
sin-1√3/5 = A
Sin A = √3/5 , cos A = √22/5 
Therefore Cos-1√3/5 = B
Cos B = √3/5 , sin B = √22/5  
sin(A+B) = sinA cosB + cosA sinB
= √3/5 * √3/5 + √22/5 * √22/5
= 3/25 * 22/25
= 25/25 
= 1

Correct Answer :- a
Explanation : cos-1(12/13) + sin-1 (3/5)
⇒ sin-1 5/13 + sin-1 3/5 
Using the formula,  sin-1x +  sin-1y = sin-1( x√1-y² + y√1-x² )
⇒ sin-1 ( 5/13√1-9/25 + 3√1-25/169)
⇒ sin-1 ( 5/13 × 4/5 + 3/5 × 12/13)
⇒ sin-1 (30 + 36 / 65)
⇒ sin-1 (56/ 65)

Nikita Singh answered
Let y = tan−1[(a−x)/(a+x)]1/2
put x = a cos θ
Now, y = tan−1[(a − a cos θ)/(a + a cos θ)]1/2
⇒ y = tan−1((1 − cos θ)/(1 + cos θ))1/2
⇒ y = tan−1[[(1−cos θ)(1−cos θ)]/(1+cos θ)(1−cos θ)]1/2
⇒ y = tan−1[(1−cos θ)2/1 − cos2θ]1/2
⇒ y = tan−1[(1 − cos θ)/sin θ]
⇒ y = tan−1[2 sin2(θ/2)/2 sin(θ/2) . cos(θ/2)]
⇒ y = tan−1[tan(θ/2)]
⇒ y = θ/2
⇒ y = 1/2 cos−1(x/a)

Tejas Verma answered
tan-1[(3+2x)/(2-3x)]
=> tan-1[2(3/2 + x)/2(1-3/2x)]
=> tan-1[(3/2 + x)/(1-3/2x)]
=> tan-1(3/2) + tan-1(x)

    Zero
  • b)
    Positive
  • c)
    Zero or positive.
  • d)
    Negative
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Dipika Dey answered
To determine the sign of sin(200)0 and cos(200)0, we need to recall the unit circle and the values of sine and cosine for angles in the different quadrants.

The unit circle is a circle with a radius of 1 unit, centered at the origin (0,0) on a coordinate plane. It helps us understand the relationship between angles and the coordinates on the circle.

The circle is divided into four quadrants: Quadrant I (0°-90°), Quadrant II (90°-180°), Quadrant III (180°-270°), and Quadrant IV (270°-360°).

In Quadrant I, both the x-coordinate (cosine) and the y-coordinate (sine) are positive. In Quadrant II, the x-coordinate (cosine) is negative, but the y-coordinate (sine) is positive. In Quadrant III, both the x-coordinate (cosine) and the y-coordinate (sine) are negative. In Quadrant IV, the x-coordinate (cosine) is positive, but the y-coordinate (sine) is negative.

Now let's consider the given angle, 200°.

Since 200° is greater than 180°, it lies in Quadrant III.

- The cosine of 200° will be negative because it is in Quadrant III.
- The sine of 200° will also be negative because it is in Quadrant III.

Hence, sin(200)0 and cos(200)0 are both negative.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D' - Negative.

  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
  • d)
    none of these.
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

If 2 tan-1 (cos x) = tan -1(2 cosec x),
2tan-1(cos x) = tan-1 (2 cosec x)
= tan-1(2 cosec x) 
= cot x cosec x = cosec x = x = π/4
