Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 5

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): Cot A is the product of Cot and A.

Reason (R): The value of sinq increases as q increases.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 5
In case of assertion

cot A is not the product of cot and A. It is the cotangent of ∠A.

∴ Assertion is incorrect.

In case of reason:

The value of sin q increases as q increases in interval of θ°< θ° < 90°

∴ Reason is correct:

Hence, the assertion is incorrect but the reason is correct.

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 6

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): If tan A = cot B, then the value of (A + B) is 90°.

Reason (R): If sec θ sin θ = 0, then the value of q is 0°.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 6
In case of assertion

tan A = cot B (Given)

tan A = tan(90° – B)

[∵ tan (90° - θ) = cot θ]

A = 90° – B

Hence, A + B = 90°.

∴ Assertion is correct.

In case of reason:

Given, sec θ.sin θ = 0

or,

or, tan θ = 0 = tan 0°

∴ θ = 0°

∴ Reason is correct:

Hence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 7

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): If k + 1 = sec2 θ (1 + sin θ) (1 – sin θ), then the value of k is 1.

Reason (R): If sin θ + cos θ = √3 then the value of tan θ + cot θ is 1.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 7
In case of assertion

k + 1 = sec2 θ(1 + sin θ)(1 – sin θ)

or, k + 1 = sec2 θ(1 – sin2 θ)

or, k + 1 = sec2 θ. cos2 θ

[∵ sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1]

or,

or, k + 1 = 1

or, k = 1 – 1

∴ k = 0.

∴ Assertion is incorrect.

In case of reason:

Given sin θ + cos q = √3

Squaring on both sides,

(sin θ + cos θ)2 = (√3)2

sin2 θ + cos2 θ + 2 sin θ cos θ = 3

1 + 2 sin θ cos θ = 3

2 sin θ cos θ = 2

sin θ cos θ = 1 ... (i)

∴ Reason is correct:

Hence, Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 8

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): If sin A = √3/2, then the value of 2 cot2 A - 1 is -1/3.

Reason (R): If q be an acute angle and 5 cosec q = 7, then the value of sin θ + cos2 θ – 1 is 10.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 8
In case of assertion

∴ Assertion is correct.

In case of reason:

∴ Reason is incorrect:

Hence, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 9

Direction: In the Following Questions, A Statement of Assertion (A) Is Followed by A Statement of Reason (R). Mark The Correct Choice As:

Assertion : sin2 67o + cos2 67o = 1

Reason : For any value of θ, sin2θ + cos2θ = 1

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 9
Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of assertion (A).

sin2θ + cos2θ = 1

sin267o + cos267o = 1

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 10

Direction: In the Following Questions, A Statement of Assertion (A) Is Followed by A Statement of Reason (R). Mark The Correct Choice As:

Assertion : sin 47° = cos 43°

Reason : sin θ = cos (90 + θ), where θ is an acute angle.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 10
Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false. Assertion is true, but reason is not correct.

sin θ = cos (90 - θ)

sin 47° = cos (90 — 47°) = cos43°

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 11

Direction: In the Following Questions, A Statement of Assertion (A) Is Followed by A Statement of Reason (R). Mark The Correct Choice As:

Assertion : If cos A + cos2A = 1 then sin2A + sin4A = 2

Reason : 1 - sin2 A = cos2A, for any value of A.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 11
Assertion (A) is false but reason (R) is true.

cos A + cos2A = 1

cos A = 1 - cos2A = sin2A

sin2 A + sin4A = cos A + cos2 A = 1

sin2 A + sin4 A = 1

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 12

Direction: In the Following Questions, A Statement of Assertion (A) Is Followed by A Statement of Reason (R). Mark The Correct Choice As:

Assertion : The value of sinθcos (90 — θ) + cos θsin (90 — 0) equals to 1.

Reason : tanθ = sec (90 — θ)

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 12
Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.

sin θ • cos (90 — θ) + cos θ sin(90 — θ)

= sin θ • sin θ + cos θ • cos θ

= sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1

and, tan θ = cot (90 — θ)

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 13

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): The value of tan47γ/cot43γ is 1.

Reason (R): The value of the expression (sin 80° – cos 80°) is negative.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 13
In case of assertion

∴ Assertion is correct.

In case of reason:

80° is near to 90°, sin 90° = 1 and cos 90° = 0

So, the given expression sin 80° – cos 80° > 0

So, the value of the given expression is positive.

∴ Reason is incorrect:

Hence, the assertion is correct but the reason is incorrect.

Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 14

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.

Assertion (A): If x = 2 sin2 θ and y = 2 cos2 θ + 1 then the value of x + y = 3.

Reason (R): If tan α = 5/12, then the value of sec α is 13/12.

Detailed Solution for Assertion & Reason Test: Introduction to Trigonometry - Question 14
In case of assertion

We have x = 2 sin2 θ

and y = 2 cos2 θ + 1

Then, x + y = 2 sin2 θ + 2 cos2 θ + 1

= 2(sin2 θ + cos2 θ) + 1

= 2 × 1 + 1

[∵ sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1]

= 2 + 1 = 3.

∴ Assertion is correct.

In case of reason:

tan α = 5/12

Using identity; sec2 α – tan2 α = 1

sec2 α = 1 + tan2 α

∴ Reason is correct:

Hence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.
