Trigonometric Ratios Of Some Specific Angles

Ans: tan 45˚ = 1, cos 30˚ = , Sin 60˚ =
2tan245˚ + cos230˚ - sin260˚

Exercise 11.2 (iii)

(1) Evaluate the following: Ans: Cos 45˚ = , Sec 30˚ = , Cosec 30˚ = 2
(i) Sin 60˚Cos 30˚ + Sin 30˚ Cos 60˚
Ans: Sin 60˚ = , cos 30˚ =
Sin 30˚ = , cos 60˚ =
Sin 60˚cos 30˚ + sin 30˚ cos 60˚ =
Rationalising the denominator by multiplying
numerator and denominator with
=
=
Rationalising the denominator by multiplying both
numerator and denominator with -1 we get =

= =

=
(iv)
=
Solution : sin 30 , tan 45 =

sec 30 =

Multiplying both numerator and denominator with

the rationalising factor of 4+3 which is 4-3

=
(v) (2) Choose the correct option and justify your
choice:
Ans: Cos 60 = , sec 30 = , tan 45 = 1
(i)
sin 30 = , cos 30 =
(a) Sin 60˚ (b) Cos 60˚ (c) Tan 60˚ (d) Sin 30˚

Ans: Tan 30˚ =

=0
= Sin 60˚ (Since Sin 60˚ = ) Answer is (d) 0
Answer is (a) Sin 60˚
(iii) Sin 2A = 2 SinA is true when A =
(ii)
(a) 0˚ (b) 30˚ (c) 45˚ (d) 60˚
(a) Tan 90˚ (b) 1 (c) Sin 45˚ (d) 0 Ans: When A = 0,
Ans: Tan 45˚ = 1 Sin 2A = sin(2 × 0) = Sin 0 = 0
2 SinA = 2 Sin0˚ = 2 × 0 = 0
So for A = 0 the given statement is true
Answer is (a) 0˚
(iv)
(a) Cos 60˚ (b) Sin 60˚ (c) Tan 60˚ (d) Sin 30˚
=
Ans: Tan 30˚ =
= Tan 60˚ (Since Tan 60˚ = )

Answer is (c) Tan 60˚

(3) If tan (A+B) = and tan (A-B) = ,

0 < A + B ≤ 90 ; A > B, find A and B.
Ans: Tan (A+B) =
Tan (A+B) = 60˚ (Since Tan 60˚ = )
A+B = 60˚

Also Tan (A-B) =

tan (A-B) = tan 30˚ (Since tan 30˚ = ) (4) State whether the following statements are
true or false. Justify your answer.
A-B = 30˚ (i) sin (A + B) = sin A + sin B.
Ans: Take A = 30˚ and B = 60˚
Solving A+B = 60˚ …………..(1)
Sin (A + B) = Sin (30˚ + 60˚) = Sin 90˚ = 1
A-B = 30˚ ……………(2)
Sin A + Sin B = Sin 30˚ + Sin 60˚ =
Adding equations (1) and (2)
So sin (A + B) ≠ sin A + sin B.
2A = 90˚ Hence this statement is false.
A= (ii) The value of sin increases as increases.
Ans: True, as it is clear from the table of values
A = 45˚
for trigonometric ratios, sin increases as
A + B = 60˚ increases.
45˚ + B = 60˚
B = 60˚ - 45˚ (iii) The value of cos increases as increases.
Ans: False, as it is clear from the table of values
B = 15˚ for trigonometric ratios, cos decreases as
A = 45˚ and B = 15˚ increases.
(iv) sin = cos for all values of .
Trigonometric Ratios Of Complementary Angles
Ans: False,
Take = 60˚
Two angles are said to be complementary if their
Sin = Sin 60˚ =
sum equals 90˚.
Cos = Cos 60˚ = Sin (90˚ - A) = CosA , Cos (90˚ - A) = SinA
So sin ≠ cos when = 60˚ Tan (90˚ - A) = CotA, Cot (90˚ - A) = TanA
Hence this statement is false.
Sec (90˚ - A) = CosecA, Cosec (90˚ - A) = SecA
(v) cot A is not defined for A = 0 .
Exercise 11.3
Ans: True,
(1) Evaluate:
Cot A
= (i)
