Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Trigonometry - 2 - Question 4

cosec6A – cot6A – 3 cosec2 A cot2A
⇒ (cosec2A)3 – (cot2A)3 – 3 cot2A. cosec2A
⇒ [(cosec2A – cot2A) ((cosec2A)2 +(cot2A)2 + cosec2A cot2A)] – 3 cot2A. cosec2A
⇒ 1 [(cosec2A)2 + (cot2A)2 – 2 cosec2A cot2A + 2 cosec2A cot2A+ cosec2A cot2A)] – 3 cot2A cosec2A
⇒ [(cosec2A – cot2A)2 + 3 cosec2A cot2A] – 3 cosec2A cot2A
⇒ (cosec2A – cot2A)2 = (1)2 = 1.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Trigonometry - 2 - Question 25


Let CD be the height of the tree and it breaks from point B which touches the ground at A. As, AB = BD. Thus, Total height of the tree CD = (BC + AB) cm
In ΔABC,

Again in ΔABC,
(AB)2 = (BC)2 + (AC)2
         
(AB)2 = 400
AB = 20 cm.
∴  Original height of the tree  = AB + BC
