Q7. If a cos θ + b sin θ =m and a sin θ -b cosθ = n, then show that a² + b²-m² + n²

Sol: We have, a cos θ + b sin θ = m (i)
and a sin θ -bcos θ = n (ii)

Q8. Find the value of tan 22°30′

Q9. Prove that sin 4A = 4 sin A cos³A – 4 cos A sin³ A.

Sol: L.H.S. = sin 4A
= 2 sin 2A- cos 2A = 2(2 sin A cosA)(cos² A – sin² A)
= 4 sin A • cos³ A – 4 cos A sin³ A = R.H.S.

Q10. If tan + sin = m and tan – sin = n, then prove that m²-n² = 4 sin tan

Sol:We have, tan + sin = m   (i)
And tan -sin =n  (ii)
Now,         m + n = 2 tan
And          m – n = 2 sin.
(m + n)(m -n) = 4 sin 6
tan m² -n² = 4 sin -tan

Q11. If tan (A + B) =p and tan (A – B) = q, then show that tan 2A = p+q / 1 – pq

Sol: We have tan (A + B) =p and tan (A – B) = q
tan2A = tan [(A + B) + (A-B)]

Q12. If cos + cos = 0 = sin + sin β, then prove that cos 2 + cos 2β = -2 cos (α + ).

Q15.  If sin θ+ cos θ =1, then find the general value of θ

Q16. Find the most general value of θ satisfying the equation tan θ = -1 and cos θ = 1/√2 .
Sol: We have tan θ = -1 and cos θ =1/√2 .
So, θ lies in IV quadrant.
θ = 7/4
So, general solution is θ = 7π/4 + 2 n π, n∈ Z

Q17. If cot θ + tan θ = 2 cosec θ, then find the general value of θ
Sol: Given that, cot θ + tan θ = 2 cosec θ

Long Answer Type Questions

Q20. If sin(θ + α) = a and sin(θ + β) = b , then prove that cos2(α – β) – 4abcos(α – β) = 1-2a² -2b²

Q26. Find the value of the expression cos⁴ π/8 + cos⁴ 3π/8  + cos⁴ 5π/8  + cos⁴7π/8

Q27. Find the general solution of the equation 5 cos² +7 sin² -6 = 0.

Q28. Find the general solution of‘the equation sin x – 3 sin 2x + sin 3x = cos x – 3 cos 2x + cos 3x.
Sol: We have, (sin x + sin 3x) – 3 sin 2x = (cos x + cos 3x) – 3 cos 2x
=> 2 sin 2x cos x – 3 sin 2x = 2 cos 2x.cos x – 3 cos 2x
=> sin 2x(2 cos x – 3) = cos 2x(2 cos x – 3)
=> sin 2x = cos 2x (As cos x ≠ 3/2)
=>              tan 2x = 1    => tan 2x = tan π/4
=>              2x = nπ + π/4 , n∈Z
x = nπ/2 +π/8 , n∈Z

Q29. Find the general solution of the equation (√3- l)cos + (√3+ 1)sin = 2.

= [tan 1° tan 2° … tan 44°] tan 45°[tan (90° – 44°) tan (90° – 43°)… tan (90° – 1°)]
= [tan 1° tan 2° … tan 44°] [cot 44° cot 43°……. cot 1°]

(c) tan A . tan 2A – tan 2A . tan 3A – tan 3A . tan A
(d) None of these
Sol: (a)
3A= A+ 2A
=> tan 3A = tan (A + 2A)
=> tan 3 A = tanA + tan2A/ 1 – tan A . tan 2A
