PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 10 Circles Ex 10.2

In Question 1 to 3, choose the corred option and give justification.

Question 1.
From a point Q, the length of the tangent to a circle is 24 cm and the distance of Q from the centre is 25 cm. The radius of the circle is
(A) 7 cm
(B) 12 cm
(C) 15 cm
(D) 24.5 cm
Solution:
A circle with centre O from a point, Q the length of the tangent to a circle is 24 cm and distance of Q from the centre is 25 cm.

∴ ∠QPO = 90°
Now, in right angled ∠OPQ,
OQ² = PQ² + OP²
(25)² = (24)² + OP²
Or 625 = 576 + OP²
Or OP² = 625 – 576
Or OP² = 49 = (7)²
Or OP = 7 cm
∴ Option (A) is correct.

Question 2.
In Fig., if TP and TQ and tangents to a circle with centre O so ∠POQ = 110°, then ∠PTQ is equal to
(A) 60°
(B) 70°
(C) 80°
(D) 90°

Solution:
In figure, OP is radius and PT is tangent to circle.
∠OPT = 90°
Similarly, ∠OQT = 90° and ∠POQ = 110° (Given)
Now, POQT is a Quadrilateral.
∴ ∠POQ + ∠OQT + ∠PTQ + ∠TPO = 360°
110° + 90° + ∠PTQ + 90° = 360°
Or ∠PTQ + 290° = 360°
Or ∠PTQ = 360° – 290°
Or ∠PTQ = 70°
∴ Option (B) is correct.

Question 3.
In tangents PA and PB from a point P to a circle with centre O are inclined to each other at angle of 800, then LPOA is equal to
(A) 50°
(B) 60°
(C) 70°
(D) 80°
Solution:
In given firgure, OA is radius and AP is a tangent to the circle.

∴ ∠OAP = 90°
Similarly, ∠OBP = 90°
Now, in right angled ∆PAO and ∆PBO
∠PAO = ∠PBO = 90°
OP = OP (Common side)
OA = OB (radii of same Circle)
∴ ∆PAO ≅ ∆PBO [RHS congruence]
∴ ∠AOP = ∠BOP [CPCT]
Or ∠AOP =∠BOP = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠AOB
Also, In Quad. OAPB,
∠OBP + ∠BPA + ∠PAO + ∠AOP = 360°
90° +80° +90° + ∠AOB = 360°
∠AOB = 360° – 260°
∠AOB = 100°
Form (1) and (2), we get
∠AOP = ∠BOP = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 100° = 50°

∴ Option (A) is correct.

Question 4.
Prove that, the tangents drawn at the ends of a diameter of a circle are parallel.
Solution:
Given: A circle with center O and AB as its diameter l and m are tangents at points A and B.
To Prove: l || m
Proof: OA is the radius and l is the tangent to the circle.

∴ ∠1 = 90°
Similarly, ∠2 = 90°
Or ∠1 = ∠2 = 90°
But these are alternate angles between two lines, when one transversal cuts them.
∴ l || m
Hence, tangents drawn at the ends of a diameter of a circle are parallel.

Question 5.
Prove that the perpendicular at the point of contact to the tangent to a circle passes through the centre.
Solution:
Given. A circle with centre O. AB its tangent meet circle at P.
i.e., P is the point of contact.

To Prove: Perpendicular at the point of contact to the tangent to a circle passes through the centre.
Construction: Join OP.
Proof: The perpendicular to a tangent line AB through the point of contact passes through the centre of the circle because only one perpendicular, OP can be drawn to the line AB through the point P.
Hence, perpendicular at the point of contact to the tangent to a circle passes through the centre.

Question 6.
The length of a tangent from a point A at a distance 5 cm. from the centre of the circle is 4 cm. Find the radius of the circle.
Solution:
A circle with centre ‘O’ A is any point outside the circle at a distance of 5 cm from the centre.

Length of tangent = PA = 4 cm
Since, OP is the radius and PA is the tangent to the circle.
∠OPA = 90°
Now, in right angled ∠OPA.
Using Pythagoras Theorem.
OA² = OP² + PA²
(5)² = OP² + (4)²
Or OP² = 25 – 16
Or OP² = 9 = (3)²
Or OP = 3 cm.
Hence, radius of the circle is 3 cm.

Question 7.
Two concentric circles are of radii 5 cm and 3 cm. Find the length of Ihe chord of the larger circle which touches the smaller circle.
Solution:
Two concentric circles having same centre O, and radii 5 cm and 3 cm respectively. Let PQ be the chord of larger circle
but tangent to the smaller circle.

Since, OM be the radius of smaller circle and PMQ be the tangent.

∴ ∠OMP = ∠OMQ = 90°
Consider, right angled triangles OMP and OMQ,
∠OMP = ∠OMQ = 90°
OP = OQ [radii of same circle]
OM = OM [common side]
∴ ∆OMP ≅ ∆OMQ [RHS congurence]
∴ PM = MQ [CPCT]
Or PQ = 2PM = 2MQ
Now, in right angled ∆OMQ.
Using Pythagoras Theorem,
OQ² = OM² + MQ²
(5)² = (3)² + (MQ)²
Or MQ = 25 – 9
Or MQ² = 16 = (4)²
Or MQ = 4 cm
Length of chord PQ = 2 MQ = 2 (4) cm = 8 cm
Hence, length of required chord is 8 cm.

Question 8.
A quadrilateral ABCD is drawn to the circumscribe a circle (see figure). Prove that AB + CD = AD + BC.

Solution:
Given: A Quadrilateral ABCD is drawn to circumscribe a circle.
To Prove: AB + CD = AD + BC
Proof: Since the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal. Now, B is any point outside the circle and BP : BQ are tangents to the circle.
∴ BP = BQ ……………(1)
Similarly, AP = AS ………….(2)
and CR = CQ …………..(3)
Also, DR = DS ………….(4)
Adding (1), (2), (3) and (4), we get
(BP + AP) + (CR + DR) = (BQ + CQ) + (AS + DS)
AB + CD = BC + AD
is the required result.

Question 9.
In figure, XY and X’Y’ are two parallel tangents to a circle with centre O and another tangent AB with point of contact C
intersecting XY at A and X’Y’ at B. Prove that ∠AOB = 90°.

Solution:
Given: A circle with centre O having two parallel tangents XY and X’Y’ and= another tangent AB with point of contact C
intersecting XY at A and X’Y’ at B.
To Prove: ∠AOB = 90°
Contruction: Join OC, OA and OB.
Proof: Since the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
Now, A is any point outside the circle from two tangents PA and AC are drawn to the circle.
∴ PA = AC
Also, in ∆ POA and ∆ AOC,
PA = AC (Proved)
OA = OA (common side)
OP = OC (radii of same circle)
∴ ∆POA ≅ ∆AOC [SSS congruence]
and ∠PAO = ∠CAO [CPCT]
Or ∠PAC = 2 ∠PAO = 2 ∠CAO ……………(1)
Similarly, ∠QBC = 2∠OBC = 2 ∠OBQ ………………(2)
Now, ∠PAC + ∠QBC = 180°
[Sum of the interior angles on the same side of transversal is 180°]
Or 2∠CAO + 2∠OBC = 180° [Using (1) & (2)]
Or ∠CAO + ∠OBC = 180 = 90° …(3)
Now, in ∆OAB,
∠CAO + ∠OBC + ∠AOB = 180°
90°+ ∠AOB = 180° [Using (3)]
Or ∠AOB = 180° – 90° = 90°
Hence, ∠AOB = 90°.

Question 10.
Prove that the angle between the two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle is supplementary to the angle subtended by the line segment joining the points of contact at the centre. [Pb. 20191
Solution:
Given. A circle with centre O. P is any point outside the circle PQ and PR are the tangents to the given circle from point P.

To Prove. ∠ROQ + ∠QPR = 180°
Proof. OQ is the radius and PQ is tangent from point P to the given circle.
∴ ∠OQP = 90° ………..(1)
[∵ The tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact]
Similarly, ∠ORP = 90°
Now, in quadrilateral ROQP,
∠ROQ + ∠PRO + ∠OQP + ∠QPR = 360°
Or ∠ROQ + 90° + 90° + ∠QPR = 360° [Using (1) & (2)]
Or ∠ROQ + ∠QPR + 180 = 360°
Or ∠ROQ + ∠QPR = 360° – 180°
Or ∠ROQ + ∠QPR = 180°
Hence, the angle between the two tangents drawn from and external point to a circle is supplementary to angle subtended by the line segment joining the pnts of contact at the centre.

Question 11.
Prove that the parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus.
Solution:
Given: A parallelogram ABCD circumscribed a circle with centre O.
To Prove: ABCD is a rhombus.
Proof: Since the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal. Now, B is any point outside thé circle and BE; BF are tangents to the circle.

To Prove: ABCD is a rhombus.
Proof: Since the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal. Now, B is any point outside thè circle and BE; BF are tangents to the circle.
∴ BE = BF
Similarly AE = AH ……………(2)
and CG = CF
Also DG = DH
Adding (1), (2), (3) and (4), we get
(BE + AE) + (CG + DG) = (BF + CF) – (AH + DH)
Or AB + CD = BC +AD ……….(5)
Now, ABCD is a parallelogram, (Given)
∴ AB = CD and BC = AD …………(6)
From (5) and (6), we get
AB + AB = BC + BC
Or 2AB = 2BC or AB = BC
Or AB = BC = CD = AD
∴ ABCD is a rhombus.
Hence, parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus.

Question 12.
A triangle ABC is drawn to circumscribe a circle of radius 4 cm such that the segments BD and DC into which BC is divided by the point of contact D are of lengths 8 cm and 6 cm respectively (see Fig). Find the sides AB and AC.

Solution:
A triangle ABC is drawn to circumscribe a circle of radius 4 cm and the sides BC, CA, AB of ∆ABC touch the circle at
D, E, F respectively. Since the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
∴ AE = AF = x cm(say)
CE = CD = 6 cm (Given)
and BF = BD = 5 cm
Since the tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact.

∴ OD ⊥ BC; OE ⊥ AC and OF ⊥ AB.
Also, OE = OD = OF = 4 cm.
Consider, ∆ABC
a = AC = (x + 6) cm ;
b = CB = (6 + 8) cm = 14 cm
c = BA = (8 + x) cm
S = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
∴ S = \(\frac{x+6+14+8+x}{2}\) = \(\frac{2 x+28}{2}\) = (x + 14)

area (∆ABC)= \(\sqrt{\mathrm{S}(\mathrm{S}-a)(\mathrm{S}-b)(\mathrm{S}-c)}\)

= \(\sqrt{\begin{array}{r}
(x+14)(x+14-\overline{x+6}) \\
(x+14-14)(x+14-\overline{8+x})
\end{array}}\)

= \(\sqrt{(x+14)(8)(x)(6)}\)

= \(\sqrt{48 x^{2}+672 x}\) cm² ………………(1)

area (∆OBC) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × altitude
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 14 × 4 = 28cm² …………….(2)

area(∆BOA)= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × altitude
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × (8 + x) × 4 = 28cm²…………….(3)

area (∆AOC) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × altitude
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × (6 + x) × 4 = 28cm² …………….(4)

From the figure, by addition of areas, we have
Or (∆ABC) = ar (∆OBC) + ar (∆BOA) + ar (∆AOC)
\(\sqrt{48 x^{2}+672 x}\) = 28 + 16 + 2x + 12 + 2x
Or \(\sqrt{48 x^{2}+672 x}\) = 4x + 56
Or 48x² + 672x =4[x+ 14]
Squaring both sides, we get
Or 48x² + 672x = 16 (x + 14)²
Or 48x (x + 14) = 16(x + 14)²
Or 3x = x + 14
Or 2x = 14
Or x = \(\frac{14}{2}\) = 7
∴ AC = (x + 6) cm = (7 + 6) cm= 13 cm
and AB = (x + 8) cm = (7 + 8) cm = 15 cm
Hence, AB = 15 cm and AC = 13 cm.

Question 13.
Prove that opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend supplementary angles at the centre of the circle.
Solution:
Given:
A quadrilateral PQRS circumscribing a circle having centre O. Sides PQ, QR, RS and SP touches the circles at L, M, N, T
respectively.

To Prove:
∠POQ + ∠SOR = 180°
and ∠SOP + ∠ROQ = 180°
Construction:
Join OP, OL, OQ, 0M. OR, ON, OS, OT
Proof: Since the two tangents drawn from an external point subtend equal angles at the centre.
∴ ∠2 = ∠3; ∠4 = ∠5 ; ∠6 = ∠7; ∠8 = ∠1
But, sum of all angles around a point is 360°
∴ ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 + ∠4 + ∠5 + ∠6 + ∠7 + ∠8 = 360°
Or ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠2 + ∠5 +∠5 + ∠6 + ∠6 + ∠1 = 360°
Or 2(∠1 + ∠2 + ∠5 + ∠6) = 360°
Or (∠1 + ∠2) + (∠5 + ∠6) = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{2}\) = 180°
Or ∠POQ + ∠SOR = 180°
Similarly, ∠SOP + ∠ROQ = 180°
Hence, opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend supplementary angles at the centre of the circle.

OP = 5 cm and OQ = 12 cm
∵ PQ is a tangent and OP is the radius
∵ ∠OPQ = 90°
Now, In right angled ∆OPQ.
By Pythagoras Theorem,
OQ² = OP² + QP²
Or (12)² = (5)² + QP²
Or QP² = (12)² – (5)²
Or QP² = 144 – 25 = 119
Or QP = \(\sqrt{119}\) cm.
Hence, option (D) is correct.

Question 1.
A circus artist is climbing 220 m long rope, which is tightly stretched and tied from the top of a vertical pole to the ground. Find the height of the pole, ¡f the angle made by the rope with the ground level is 30° (see fig.).

Solution:
Let AB be the heignt of pole;
AC = 20 m be the length of rope.
The angle of elevation in this situation is 30°.
Various arrangements are as shown in figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,
\(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = sin 30°

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{20}=\frac{1}{2}\)

or AB = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 20 = 10
Hence, height of pole is 10 m.

Question 2.
A tree breaks due to storm and the broken part bends so that the top of the tree touches the ground making an angle 300 with it. The distance between the foot of the tree to the point where the top touches the ground is 8 rn Find the height of the tree.
Solution:
Let BD be length of tree before storm.
After storm AD = AC = length of broken part of tree.
The angle of elevation in this situation is 30°.
Various arrangements are as shown in the figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = tan 30°

or \(\frac{h_{1}}{8}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
or h₁ = \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{8}{3} \sqrt{3}\) m ……….(1)

\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = cos 30°

or \(\frac{8}{h_{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

or \(h_{2}=\frac{8 \times 2}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\)

h₂ = \(\frac{16}{3}\) √3 …………..(2)

Total height of the tree = h₁ + h₂
= \(\frac{8}{3}\) √3 + \(\frac{16}{3}\) √3 [Using (1) & (2)]

= \(\left(\frac{8+16}{3}\right) \sqrt{3}=\frac{24}{3} \sqrt{3}\) = 8√3 m.
Hence, height of the tree is 8√3 m.

Question 3.
A contractor plants to install two slides for the children to play in a park. For the children below the age of 5 years, she
prefers to have a slide whose top is at a height of 1.5 m, and is inclined at an angle of 30° to the ground, whereas for elder children, she wants to have a steep slide at a height of 3 m, and inclined at an angle of 60° to the ground. What should be the length of the slide in each case?
Solution:
Case I:
For children below 5 years.
Let AC = l₁ m denote the length of slide and BC = 1.5 m be the height of slide. The angle of elevation is 30°.
Various arrangements are shown in figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = sin 30°

or \(\frac{1 \cdot 5}{l_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}\)

or l₁ = 1.5 × 2 = 3 m.

Case II:
For Elder children
Let AC = 12 m represent the length of slide and BC = 3 m be the height of slide. The angle of elevation is 60°. Various arrangements are as shown in figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = sin 60°

or \(\frac{3}{l_{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

or l₂ = \(\frac{3 \times 2}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{3}}\)

= \(\frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{6 \sqrt{3}}{3}\)

= 2√3 m.

Hence, length of slides for children below 5 years and elder children are 3 m and 2 m.

Question 4.
The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point on the ground, which is 30 m away from the foot of the tower, is 30°. Find the height of the tower.
Solution:
Let BC = h m be the height of tower and AB = 30 m be the distance at ground level. Various arrangements are as shown in figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}\) = tan 30°

or \(\frac{h}{30}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or h = \(\frac{30}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{30 \sqrt{3}}{3}\)

= 10√3 = 10 × 1.732
h = 17.32 (approx).
Hence, height of tower is 17.32 m.

Question 5.
A kite is flying at a height of 60 m above the ground. The string attached to the kite is temporarily tied to a point on the ground. The inclination of the string with the ground is 60°. Find the length of the string, assuming that there is no slack in the string.
Solution:
Let us suppose position of the kite is at point CAC = l m be length of string with which kite is attached. The angle of elevation for this situation be 60°. Various arrangements are as shown in the figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{CB}}{\mathrm{AB}}\) = sin 60°

or \(\frac{60}{l}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

or l = \(\frac{60 \times 2}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{120}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\)

= \(\frac{120 \sqrt{3}}{3}\) = 40√3 m.
Hence, length of the string be 40√3 m.

Question 6.
A 15 m tall boy is standing at some distance from a 30 m tall building. The angle of elevation from his eyes to the top of the building increases from 30° to 60° as he walks towards the building. Find the distance he walked towards the building.
Solution. Let ED = 30 m be the height of building and EC = l5 m be the height of boy.
The angle of elevation at different situation are 30° and 60° respectively.
Various arrangements are as shown in figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{DC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = tan 30°

or \(\frac{28 \cdot 5}{x+y}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or x + y = 28.5 × √3 m ………………(1)

Now, in right angled ∆BCD,

\(\frac{\mathrm{DC}}{\mathrm{BC}}\) = tan 60°

or \(\frac{28 \cdot 5}{y}=\sqrt{3}\)

or y = \(\frac{28 \cdot 5}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or y = \(\frac{28 \cdot 5}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{28 \cdot 5 \times \sqrt{3}}{3}\) ……….(2)

Distance covered towards building = x = (x + y) – y
= (28.5 × √3) – (\(\frac{28.5}{3}\) × √3) m [sing (1) and (2)]

= 28.5 (1 – \(\frac{1}{3}\)) √3 m

= 28.5 (\(\frac{3-1}{4}\)) √3 m

= [28.5 × \(\frac{2}{3}\)]√3 m = 19√3 m.

Hence, distance covered by boy towards the building is 19√3 m.

Question 7.
From a point on the ground, the angles of elevation of the bottom and top of a transmission tower fixed at the top of a 20 m high building are 45° and 60° respectively. Find the height of the tower.
Solution:
Let BC = 20 m be the height of building and DC = h m be the height of transmission tower. The angle of elevation of
the bottom and top of a transmission tower are 45° and 60° respectively.
Various arrangements are as shown in the figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,
\(\frac{A B}{B C}\) = cot 45°

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{20}\) = 1
or AB = 20 m ………………..(1)
Also, in right angled ∆ABD,
\(\frac{A B}{B C}\) = cot 60°

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{20+h}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

AB = \(\frac{(20+h)}{\sqrt{3}}\) ………….(2)

From (1) and (2), we get

20 = \(\frac{(20+h)}{\sqrt{3}}\)
or 20√3 = 20 + h
or h = 20√3 – 20
or h = 20 (√3 – 1) m
= 20 (1.732 – 1) m
= 20 × 0.732 = 14.64 m.

Hence, height of the tower is 14.64 m.

Question 8.
A statue 1.6 m tall stands on the top of a pedestal. From a point on the ground, the angle of elevation of the top of the statue is 60° and from the same point the angle of elevation of the top of the pedestal is 45°. Find the height of the pedestal.
Solution. Let BC = h m be the height of Pedestal and CD = 1.6 m be the height of statue.
The angle of elevation of top of statue and top of pedestal are 60° and 45° respectively. Various arrangements are as shown in the figure.

In right angled ∆ABC,
\(\frac{A B}{B C}\) = cot 45°

or \(\frac{A B}{h}\) = 1

or AB = h m ………….(1)

In right angled ∆ABC,
\(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{BD}}\) = cot 60°

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{h+1.6}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or AB = \(\frac{h+1.6}{\sqrt{3}}\) ……….(2)

From (1) and (2), we get
h = \(\frac{h+1.6}{\sqrt{3}}\)
or √3h = h + 1.6
or (√3 – 1) h = 1.6
or (1.732 – 1) h = 16
or (0.732) h = 1.6
or h = \(\frac{1.6}{0.732}\) = 2.1857923
= 2.20 m (approx.)
Hence, height of pedestal is 2.20 m.

Question 9.
The angle of elevation of the top of a building from the foot of the tower is 300 and the angle of elevation of the top of the tower from the foot of the building is 60°. If the tower is 50 m high, find the height of the
building.
Solution:

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{50}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or AB = \(\frac{50}{\sqrt{3}}\) …………(1)

Also, in right angled ∆DAB,
\(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{DA}}\) = cot 30°

or \(\frac{A B}{h}\) = √3
or AB = h√3 ……………(2)

From (1) and (2), we get
\(\frac{50}{\sqrt{3}}\) = h√3

or \(\frac{50}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) = h

or h = \(\frac{50}{3}\) = 16.6666

or h = 16.70 m (approx).

In right angled ∆ABC,

\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}\) = tan 60°

or \(\frac{h}{80-x}\) = √3

or h = (80 – x) √3 …………(2)

From (1) and (2), we get
\(\frac{x}{\sqrt{3}}\) = (80 – x)
or x = (80 – x) √3 × √3
or x = (80 – x) 3
or x = 240 – 3x
or 4x = 240
or x = \(\frac{240}{4}\) = 60
Substitute this value of x in (I), we get
h = \(\frac{60}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{60^{\circ}}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\)

= \(\frac{60 \sqrt{3}}{3}=20 \sqrt{3}\)

= (20 × 1.732) m = 34.64 m
DA = x = 60 m
and AB = 80 – x = (80 – 60) m = 20 m.
Hence, heigth of the poles are 3464 m and the distances of the point from the poles are 20 m and 60 m respectively.

or \(\frac{h}{20+x}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or h = \(\frac{20+x}{\sqrt{3}}\) ……………….(2)

From (1) and (2), we get

√3x = \(\frac{20+x}{\sqrt{3}}\)
or √3(√3x) = 20 + x
or 3x = 20 + x
or 2x = 20
or x = \(\frac{20}{2}\) = 10

Substitute this value of x in (1), we get
h = 10(√3)

or \(\frac{\mathrm{EC}}{h-7}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or EC = \(\frac{h-7}{\sqrt{3}}\) ……………..(2)

But AB = EC ………….(Given)
7 = \(\frac{h-7}{\sqrt{3}}\) [Using (1) and (2)]
or 7√3 = h – 7
h = 7√3 + 7 = 7 (√3 + 1)
or h = 7 (1.732 + 1) = 7(2.732)
or h = 19.124
or h = 19.20 m (approx.)
Hence, height of the tower is 19.20 m.

or x = 75√3 – 75
= 75 (√3 – 1)
= 75( 1.732 – 1)
= 75 (0.732)
or x = 54.90
Hence, distance between the two ships is 54.90 m.

different distances are 30° and 60° respectively. Various arrangements are as shwon in th figure.
According to question,
FG = ED = CE – CD
= 88.2 m – 1.2 m
= 87 m

In right angled ∆AGF,
\(\frac{A G}{G F}\) = cot 60°

or \(\frac{x}{87}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or x = \(\frac{87}{\sqrt{3}}\) m.

Also, in right angled ∆ADE,
\(\frac{A D}{E D}\) = cot 30°

or \(\frac{x+y}{87}\) = √3

or x + y = 87√3
or \(\frac{87}{\sqrt{3}}\) + y = 87√3
or y = 87√3 – \(\frac{87}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or y = 87√3 – \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or y = 87 \(\frac{3-1}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\)

or y = \(\frac{87 \times 2 \times \sqrt{3}}{3}\)

or y = 58√3
or y = 58(1.732) = 100.456
or y = 100.456 m.
Hence, distance travelled by the balloon during the interval is 100.46 m.

Question 15.
A straight highway leads to the foot of a tower. A man standing at the top of the tower observes a car at an angle of depression of 30°, which is approaching the foot of the tower with a uniform speed. Six seconds later, the angle of depression of the car is found to be 60°. Find the further t(me taken by the car to reach the foot of the tower.

Let CD = h m. be the tower of height.
Let A be initial position of the car and after six seconds the car be at 13. The angles of depression at A and B are 30° and 60° respectively. Various arrangements are as shown in figure.

Let speed of the car be υ metre per second using formula, Distance = Speed x Time
AB = Distance covered by car in 6 seconds

Also, in right angled ∆BCD,
\(\frac{C D}{B C}\) = tan 60°

or \(\frac{h}{n v}\) = √3
h = nv (√3) ……….(2)

From (1) and (2), we get
\(\frac{6 v+n v}{\sqrt{3}}\) = nυ(√3)
or 6υ + nυ = nυ(√3)
or 6υ + nυ = 3nυ
or 6υ = 2nυ
or n = \(\frac{6 v}{2 v}\) = 3
Hence, time taken by car to reach the foot of tower is 3 seconds.

or \(\frac{h^{2}}{36}=\tan \theta \times \frac{1}{\tan \theta}\)

or h² = 36 = (6)²
or h = 6
Hence, height of the tower is 6 m.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 8 Introduction to Trigonometry Ex 8.4

Question 1.
Express the trigonometric ratios of sin A, sec A and tan A in terms of cot A.
Solution:
By using Identity,
cosec² A – cot² A = 1
⇒ cosec² A = 1 + cot² A
⇒ (cosec A)² = cot² A + 1
⇒ \(\left(\frac{1}{\sin A}\right)^{2}\) = cot² A + 1
⇒ (sin A)² = \(\frac{1}{\cot ^{2} \mathrm{~A}+1}\)
⇒ sin A = ± \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\cot ^{2} \mathrm{~A}+1}}\)
We reject negative values of sin A for acute angle A.
Therefore, sin A = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\cot ^{2} A+1}}\)
By using identity,
sec² A – tan² A = 1
⇒ sec² A = 1 + tan² A
= 1 + \(\frac{1}{\cot ^{2} A}\)
= \(\frac{\cot ^{2} A+1}{\cot ^{2} A}\)

⇒ sec A = \(\sqrt{\frac{\cot ^{2} A+1}{\cot ^{2} A}}\)

tan A = \(\frac{1}{\cot A}\).

Question 2.
Write all the other trigonometric ratios of ∠A in terms of sec A.
Solution:
By using Identity
sin² A + cos² A = 1
⇒ sin² A = 1 – cos² A
= 1 – \(\frac{1}{\sec ^{2} \cdot A}\) = \(\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}\)

⇒ (sin A)² = \(\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}\)

⇒ sin A = ± \(\sqrt{\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}}\)

[Reject – ve sign for acute angle A]
⇒ sin A = ± \(\sqrt{\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}}\)
cos A = \(\frac{1}{\sec A}\)
1 + tan² A = sec² A
tan² A = sec² A – 1
(tan A)² = sec² A – 1
⇒ tan A = ± \(\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}\)
[Reject – ve sign for acute angle A]
i.e., tan A = \(\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}\)
cosec A = \(\frac{1}{\sin A}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\)

= \(\frac{\sec A}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\)

cot A = \(\frac{1}{\tan A}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\).

Question 3.

Solution:
(i) \(\frac{\sin ^{2} 63^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\cos ^{2} 73^{\circ}}\)

= \(\frac{\left\{\sin \left(90^{\circ}-27^{\circ}\right)+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}\right\}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\left\{\cos \left(90^{\circ}-17^{\circ}\right)\right\}^{2}}\)
[∵ sin(90 – θ) = cos θ and cos (90 – θ) = sin θ]

= \(\frac{\left\{\cos 27^{\circ}\right\}^{2}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\left\{\sin 17^{\circ}\right\}^{2}}\)

= \(\frac{\cos ^{2} 27^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 17^{\circ}}\)
= \(\frac{1}{1}\) = 1.

(ii) sin 25° cos 65° + cos 25° sin 65°
= sin 25° × cos (90° – 25°)
+ cos 25° × sin (90° – 25°)
[∵ cos (90° – θ) = sin θ
sin(90° – θ) = cos θ].
= sin 25° × sin 25° + cos 25° × cos 25°
= sin² 25° + cos² 25° = 1.

= \(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta+\sin ^{2} \theta+2 \cos \theta \sin \theta-1}{\cos \theta \times \sin \theta}\)

= \(\frac{1+2 \cos \theta \sin \theta-1}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}\) = 2.

Option (C) is correct.

(iii) Consider, (sec A + tan A) (1 – sin A)
= \(\left(\frac{1}{\cos A}+\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\right)\) × (1 – sin A)

= \(\frac{(1+\sin A)(1-\sin A)}{\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{(1)^{2}-(\sin A)^{2}}{\cos A}=\frac{1-\sin ^{2} A}{\cos A}=\frac{\cos ^{2} A}{\cos A}\)

(x) \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)=\left(\frac{1-\tan A}{1-\cot A}\right)^{2}\) = tan² A.

Solution:
(i) L.H.S. = (cosec θ – cot θ)²
= \(\left\{\frac{1}{\sin \theta}-\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right\}^{2}\)

= \(\left(\frac{1-\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)^{2}=\frac{(1-\cos \theta)^{2}}{\sin ^{2} \theta}\)
Using identity, sin² θ + cos² θ = 1
⇒ sin² θ = 1 – cos² θ
= \(\frac{(1-\cos \theta)^{2}}{1-\cos ^{2} \theta}\)
= \(\)
[∵ a² – b² = (a + b) (a – b)]

= \(\)

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (cosec θ – cot θ)² = \(\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1+\cos \theta}\)

(ii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\cos A}{1+\sin A}+\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{2}{\cos A}\) = cos A
∴L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\cos A}{1+\sin A}+\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}\) = 2 sec A.

(iii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\tan \theta}{1+\cot \theta}+\frac{\cot \theta}{1-\tan \theta}\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ

= \(\frac{\left(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right)}{\left(1-\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)}+\frac{\left(\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)}{\left(1-\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right)}\)

= \(\frac{1+\sin \theta \cos \theta}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}=\frac{1}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}+1\)

= 1 + \(\left(\frac{1}{\cos \theta}\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sin \theta}\right)\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ
∴L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\tan \theta}{1+\cot \theta}+\frac{\cot \theta}{1-\tan \theta}\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ

(iv) L.H.S. = \(\frac{1+\sec A}{\sec A}=\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)
= \(\frac{1+\frac{1}{\cos A}}{\frac{1}{\cos A}}\)
= 1 + cos A …………….(1)
R.H.S = \(\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)
(∵ 1 – cos² A = sin² A.)
= \(\frac{1-\cos ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{(1+\cos A)(1-\cos A)}{(1-\cos A)}\)

= 1 + cos A. …………….(2)
From (1) and (2) it is clear that
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{1+\sec A}{\sec A}=\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\).

(v) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}\) using the identity cosec² A

= cosec A + cot A
= R.H.S
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}\) using the identity cosec² A = 1 + cot² A.

(vi) L.H.S. = \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)(1+\sin A)}{(1-\sin A)(1+\sin A)}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{(1)^{2}-(\sin A)^{2}}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{1-\sin ^{2} A}}=\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{\cos ^{2} A}}\)

= \(\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}=\frac{1}{\cos A}+\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\)
= sec A + tan A

Hence, \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\) = sec A + tan A.

(vii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\sin \theta-2 \sin ^{3} \theta}{2 \cos ^{3} \theta-\cos \theta}\)

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\sin \theta-2 \sin ^{3} \theta}{2 \cos ^{3} \theta-\cos \theta}\) = tan θ

(viii) L.H.S. = (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)²
= (sin² A + cosec² A + 2 sin A × cosec A) + {cos² A + sec² A
+ 2 cos A × sec A)
= [sin² A + co² A + 2sin A × \(\frac{1}{\sin A}\)] + [cos² A + sec² A + 2 cosA × \(\frac{1}{\cos A}\)]
= (sin² A + cosec² A + 2) + (cos² A + sec² A + 2)
= 2 + 2 + (sin² A + cos² A) + sec² A + cosec² A
= 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + tan² A + 1 + cot² A
= 7 tan² A + cot² A
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)² = 7 + tan² A + cot² A.

(ix) L.H.S. = (cosec A – sin A) (sec A – cos A)

From (1) and (2), it is clear that
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (cosec A – sin A) (sec A – cos A) = \(\frac{1}{\tan A+\cot A}\)

(x) \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)\)
(∵ 1 + tan² A = sec² A
and 1 + cot² A = cosec² A)

From (1) and (2), it is clear that
LH.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)=\left(\frac{1-\tan A}{1-\cot A}\right)^{2}\) = tan² A.

= tan 48° tan 23° tan 42° tan 67°
= tan 48° × tan 23° × tan (90° – 48°) × tan (90° – 23°)
= tan48° × tan 23° × cot48° × cot 23°
= tan 48C × tan 23° × \(\frac{1}{\tan 48^{\circ}}\) × \(\frac{1}{\tan 23^{\circ}}\) = 1
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

(ii) L.H.S.= cos 38° cos 52° – sin 38° sin 52°
= cos 38° × cos (90 – 38°) – sin 38° × sin (90° – 38°)
= cos 38° × sin 38° – sin 38° × cos 38
= 0.
∴ L.H.S. = RH.S.

Question 3.
If tan 2A = cot (A – 18°) where 2A is an acute angle, find the value of A.
Solution:
Given: tan 2A = cot (A – 18°)
⇒ cot (90° – 2A) = cot (A – 18°)
[cot (90° – θ) = tan θ]
⇒ 90°- 2A = A – 18°
⇒ 3A = 108°
⇒A = 36°.

Question 4.
If tan A = cot B, prove that A + B = 90°.
Solution:
Given that: tan A = cot B
⇒ tan A = tan(90° – B)
[∵ tan (90° – θ) = cot θ]
⇒ A = 90° – B.
⇒ A + B = 90°..

Question 5.
If sec 4A = cosec (A – 20°), where 4A is an acute angle, find the value of A.
Solution:
Given that: sec 4A = cosec (A – 20°)
⇒ cosec (90° – 4A) = cosec (A — 20°)
[∵ cosec (90° – θ) = sec θ]
⇒ 90° – 4A = A – 20°
⇒ 5A = 110°
⇒ A = 22°.

Question 6.
If A, B and C interior angles of a triangle ABC, then show that: \(\sin \left(\frac{B+C}{2}\right)=\cos \left(\frac{A}{2}\right)\)
Solution:
Since, A, B and C are interior angles of a triangle
∴ A + B + C = 180°
[Sum of three angles of a triangle is 180°]
⇒ B + C = 180° – A
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{B}+\mathrm{C}}{2}=\frac{180^{\circ}-\mathrm{A}}{2}\)
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{B}+\mathrm{C}}{2}=\left(90^{\circ}-\frac{\mathrm{A}}{2}\right)\)
Taking sin on both sides, we get
⇒ \(\sin \left(\frac{\mathrm{B}+\mathrm{C}}{2}\right)=\sin \left(90^{\circ}-\frac{\mathrm{A}}{2}\right)\)
[∵ sin (90° – θ) = cos θ].

Question 7.
Express sin 67° + cos 75° in terms of Trigonometric ratios of angles between 0° and 45°.
Solution:
Given that: sin 67° + cos 75°
= sin (90° – 23°) + cos (90° – 15°)
= cos 23° + sin 15°
[∵ sin(90° – θ) = cos θ and cos (90° – θ) = sin θ].

Solution:
(i) sin 60° cos 30° + sin 30° cos 60°
= \(\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\)

= \(\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}\)
= \(\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\) = 1.

(ii) 2 tan² 45° + cos² 30° – sin² 60° = 2 (tan 45°)² + (cos 30°)² – (sin 60°)²
= 2 (1)² + (\(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\))² – (\(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\))² = 2.

(iii)
= \(\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)+(2)}=\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\frac{2+2 \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}}\)

= \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}: \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2+2 \sqrt{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2 \sqrt{2}(\sqrt{3}+1)}\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{3}(\sqrt{3}-1)}{2 \sqrt{2}(\sqrt{3}+1)(\sqrt{3}-1)}\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{3} \times(\sqrt{3}-1)}{4(3-1)}=\frac{3 \sqrt{2}-\sqrt{6}}{8}\).

(iv)

= \(\frac{\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}+\frac{1}{2}+1}=\frac{\frac{3}{2}-\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}+\frac{3}{2}}\)

= \(\frac{3 \sqrt{3}-4}{4+3 \sqrt{3}}\)

= \(\frac{(3 \sqrt{3}-4)(3 \sqrt{3}-4)}{(3 \sqrt{3}+4)(3 \sqrt{3}-4)}\)

= \(\frac{27+16-24 \sqrt{3}}{27-16}\)

= \(\frac{43-24 \sqrt{3}}{11}\)

(v) \(\frac{5 \cos ^{2} 60^{\circ}+4 \sec ^{2} 30^{\circ}-\tan ^{2} 45^{\circ}}{\sin ^{2} 30^{\circ}+\cos ^{2} 30^{\circ}}\)

= \(\begin{array}{r}
5\left(\cos 60^{\circ}\right)^{2}+4\left(\sec 30^{\circ}\right)^{2} \\
\frac{-\left(\tan 45^{\circ}\right)^{2}}{\left(\sin 30^{\circ}\right)^{2}+\left(\cos 30^{\circ}\right)^{2}}
\end{array}\)

= \(\frac{5\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}+4\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{2}-(1)^{2}}{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\frac{\frac{5}{4}+4 \times \frac{4}{3}-1}{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{\frac{5}{4}+\frac{1}{3}-1}{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{4}}\)

= \(\frac{5}{4}+\frac{16}{3}-1=\frac{15+64-12}{12}=\frac{67}{12}\).

Question 2.
Choose the correct option and justify your choice.

(i) \(\frac{2 \tan 30^{\circ}}{1+\tan 30^{\circ}}\)
(A) sin 60°
(B) cos 60°
(C) tan 60°
(D) sin 30°

(ii) \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} 45^{\circ}}{1+\tan 45^{\circ}}\)
(A) tan 90°
(B) 1
(C) sin 45°
(D) 0.

(iii) sin 2A = 2 sin A is true when
(A) 0°
(B) 30°
(C) 45°
(D) 60°

(iv) \(\frac{2 \tan 30^{\circ}}{1+\tan ^{2} 30^{\circ}}\)
(A) cos 60°
(B) sin 60°
(C) tan 60°
(D) sin 30°.

Solution:
(i) \(\frac{2 \tan 30^{\circ}}{1+\tan 30^{\circ}}=\frac{2\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)}{1+\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{2}}\)

\(\frac{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{1+\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{3}{4}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) = sin 60°.
So, correct anwer is (A).

(ii) \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} 45^{\circ}}{1+\tan ^{2} 45^{\circ}}=\frac{1-(1)^{2}}{1+(1)^{2}}\) = 0
So, correct anwer is (D).

(iii) Here when A = 0°
L.H.S. = sin 2A = sin 0° = 0
and R.H.S. = 2 sin A = 2 sin 0°
= 2 × 0 = 0
∴ Option (A) is correct.

(iv) \(\frac{2 \tan 30^{\circ}}{1-\tan ^{2} 30^{\circ}}=\frac{2\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)}{1-\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\frac{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{1-\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{3}{2}=\sqrt{3}\)

= tan 60°
∴ Option (C) is correct.

Question 3.
If tan (A + B) = \(\sqrt{3}\) and tan (A – B) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\); 0° ∠A + B ≤ 90°; A > B. find A and B.
Solution:
tan (A + B) = \(\sqrt{3}\). Given
tan (A + B) = tan 60°
⇒ A + B = 60° ……………..(1)
tan (A – B) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) (Given)
or tan (A – B) = tan 30°
⇒ A – B = 30° …………….(2)
On adding (1) and (2),

A = 45°

Pu value of A = 45° in (1)
45° + B = 60°
B = 60° – 45°
B = 15°
Hence A = 45° and B = 15°.

Question 4.
State whether the following are true or false. Justify your answer.
(i) sin (A + B) = sin A + sin B.
(ii) The value of sin q increases as q increases.
(iii) The value of cos q Increases as q increases
(iv) sin q = cos q for all value of q.
(v) cot A is not defined for A = 0°.
Solution:
(i) False.
When A = 60°, B = 30°
L.H.S. = sin (A + B) = sin (60° + 30°) = sin 90° = 1
R.H.S. = sin A + sin B
= sin 60° + sin 30°
= \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\) ≠ 1
i.e., L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.

(ii) True, sin 30° = \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 0.5,
Note that sin 0° = 0,
sin 45° = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) = 0.7 (approx.)
sin 60° = \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) = 0.87 (approx.)
and sin 90° = 1
i.e., value of sin θ increases as θ increases from 0° to 90°.

(iii) False.
Note that cos 0° = 1,
cos 30° = \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) = 0.87(approx.)
cos 45° = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) = 0.7.(approx.)
cos 60° = \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 0.5
and cos 90° = 0.
Hence, value of θ decreases as θ increases from 0° to 90°.

(iv) False
Since sin 30° = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
and cos 30° = \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
or sin 30° ≠ cos 30°
Only we have: sin 45° = cos 45°.
\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

(v) True.
cot 0° = \(\frac{1}{\tan 0^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{0}\), or not defined.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 8 Introduction to Trigonometry Ex 8.1

Question 1.
In ∆ABC, right angled at B, AB = 24 cm; BC = 7 cm. Determine
(i) sin A, cos A
(ii) sin C, cos C.
Solution:
(i) We are to find sin A .cos A AB = 24 cm; BC = 7 cm
By using Pythagoras Theorem,

AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = (24)² + (7)²
AC² = 576 + 49
AC² = 625
AC = \(\sqrt{625}\)
AC = 25 cm.
sin A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\)

sin A = \(\frac{7 \mathrm{~cm}}{25 \mathrm{~cm}}=\frac{7}{25}\)

cos A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{24 \mathrm{~cm}}{25 \mathrm{~cm}}\)

cos A = \(\frac{24}{25}\)

Hence sin A = \([latex]\frac{7}{25}\)[/latex] and cos A = \([latex]\frac{24}{25}\)[/latex].

(ii) sin C = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{24 \mathrm{~cm}}{25 \mathrm{~cm}}\)

sin C = \(\frac{24}{25}\)

cos C = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{7 \mathrm{~cm}}{25 \mathrm{~cm}}\)

cos C = \(\frac{7}{25}\)

Hence sin C = \(\frac{24}{25}\) and cos C = \(\frac{7}{25}\).

Question 2
In fig., find tan P – cot R.

Solution:
Hyp. PR = 13 cm

By using Pythagoras Theorem,
PR² = PQ² + QR²
or (13)² = (12)² + QR²
or 169 = 144 + (QR)²
or 169 – 144 = (QR)²
or 25 = (QR)²
or QR = ± \(\sqrt{25}\)
or QR = 5, – 5.
But QR = 5 cm.
[QR ≠ – 5, because side cannot be negative]
tan P = \(\frac{R Q}{Q P}=\frac{5}{12}\)

cot R = \(\frac{R Q}{P Q}=\frac{5}{12}\)

∴ tan P – cot R = \(\frac{5}{12}-\frac{5}{12}\) = 0
Hence tan P – cot R = 0.

Question 3.
If sin A = \(\frac{3}{4}\) calculate cos A and tan A.
Solution:
Let ABC be any triangle with right angle at B.

sin A = \(\frac{3}{4}\)
But sin A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) [From figure]
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{3}{4}\)
But \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{3}{4}\) = K
where K, is constant of proportionality.
⇒ BC = 3K, AC = 4K
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
AC² = AB² + BC²
or (4K)² = (AB)² + (3K)²
or 16K² = AB² + 9K²
or 16K² – 9K² = AB²
or 7K² = AB²
or AB = ± \(\sqrt{7 K^{2}}\)
or AB = ± \(\sqrt{7} \mathrm{~K}\)
[AB ≠ \(\sqrt{7 K}\) because side of a triangle cannot be negative]

⇒ AB = \(\sqrt{7} \mathrm{~K}\)
cos A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}\)
cos A = \(\frac{\sqrt{7} K}{4 K}=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}\)
tan A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{3 \mathrm{~K}}{\sqrt{7} \mathrm{~K}}=\frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}\)

Hence cos A = \(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}\) and tan A = \(\frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}\).

Question 4.
Given 15 cot A = 8, find sin A and sec A.
Solution:
Let ABC be any right angled triangle where A is an acute angle with right angle at B.

15 cot A = 8
cot A = \(\frac{8}{15}\)
But cot A = \(\frac{A B}{B C}\) (fromfig.)
⇒ \(\frac{A B}{B C}=\frac{8}{15}\) = K
where K is constant of proportionality.
AB = 8 K, BC = 15 K
By using Pythagoras Theorem.
AC² = (AB)² + (BC)²
(AC)² = (8 K)² + (15 K)²
(AC)² = 64K² + 225 K²
(AC)² = 289 K²
AC = ± \(\sqrt{289 K^{2}}\)
AC = ± 17 K
⇒ AC = 17K
[AC = – 17 K, Because side cannot be negative]
sin A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{15 \mathrm{~K}}{17 \mathrm{~K}}=\frac{15}{17}\)

sin A = \(\frac{15}{17}\)

sec A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{AB}}\)

sec A = \(\frac{17 \mathrm{~K}}{8 \mathrm{~K}}=\frac{17}{8}\)

sec A = \(\frac{17}{8}\)

Hence, sin A = \(\frac{15}{17}\) and sec A = \(\frac{17}{8}\).

Question 5.
Given sec θ = \(\frac{13}{2}\), calculate all other trigonometric ratios.
Solution:
Let ABC be any right angled triangle with right angle at B.
Let ∠BAC = θ

sec θ = \(\frac{13}{12}\)

But sec θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{AB}}\) ……….[from fig.]

\(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{13}{12}\)

But \(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{13}{12}\) = k where k is constant of proportionality.
AC = 13 k and AB = 12 k
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
AC² = (AB)² + (BC)²
or (13k)² = (12k)² + (BC)²
or 169k² = 144k² + (BC)²
or 169k² – 144k² = (BC)
or (BC)² = 25k²
or BC = ± \(\sqrt{25 k^{2}}\)
or BC = ± 5k
or BC = 5k.
[BC ≠ – 5k because side cannot be negative]

sin θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{5 k}{13 k}=\frac{5}{13}\)
cos θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{12 k}{13 k}=\frac{12}{13}\)
tan θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{5 k}{12 k}=\frac{5}{12}\)
cosec θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{BC}}=\frac{13 k}{5 k}=\frac{13}{5}\)
cot θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{BC}}=\frac{12 k}{5 k}=\frac{12}{5}\).

Question 6.
If ∠A and ∠B are acute angles such that cos A = cos B, show that LA = LB.
Solution:
Let ABC be any triangle, where ∠A and ∠B are acute angles. To find cos A and cos B.

Draw CM ⊥ AB
∠AMC = ∠BMC = 90°
In right angled ∆AMC,
\(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) = cos A ……………(1)
In right angled ∆BMC,
\(\frac{\mathrm{BM}}{\mathrm{BC}}\) = cos B ……………(2)
But cos A = cos B [given] ………..(3)
From (1), (2) and (3),
\(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{\mathrm{BM}}{\mathrm{BC}}\)
\(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{BM}}=\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{BC}}=\frac{\mathrm{CM}}{\mathrm{CM}}\)
∴ ∆AMC = ∆BMC [By SSS similarity]
⇒ ∠A = ∠B [∵ Corresponding angles of two similar triangles are equal].

Question 7.
If cot θ = \(\frac{7}{8}\) evaluate
(i) \(\frac{(1+\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}{(1+\cos \theta)(1-\cos \theta)}\)
(ii) cot² θ.
Solution:
(i) ∠ABC = θ.
In right angled triangle ABC with right angle at C.

Given that, cot θ = \(\frac{7}{8}\)
But cot θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}\) [From fig.]
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{7}{8}\)
Let \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{7}{8}\) = k
where k is constant of proportionality.
⇒ BC = 7k, AC = 8k
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
AB² = (BC)² + (AC)²
or (AB)² = (7k)² + (8k)²
or (AB)² = 49k² + 64k²
or (AB)² = 113 k²
or AB = ± \(\)
AB = \(\sqrt{113 k^{2}}\) k
AB = \(\sqrt{113}\) k
[AB ≠ \(\sqrt{113}\) k because side cannot be negative]

sin θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{AC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{8 k}{\sqrt{113} k}\)
sin θ = \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\)
cos θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{7 k}{\sqrt{113} k}=\frac{7}{\sqrt{113}}\)
cos θ = \(\frac{7}{\sqrt{113}}\)

(1 + sin θ) (1 – sin θ) = (1 + \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\)) (1 – \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\))
= (1)² – (\(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\))²
[By using formula (a + b) (a – b) = a² – b²]
= 1 – \(\frac{64}{113}\)
(1 + sin θ) (1 – sin θ) = \(\frac{113-64}{113}=\frac{49}{113}\)
(1 + sin θ)(1 – sin θ) = \(\frac{49}{113}\) ……………..(1)

(1 + cos θ) (1 – cos θ) = (1 + \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\)) (1 – \(\frac{8}{\sqrt{113}}\))
(1)² – (\(\frac{7}{\sqrt{113}}\))²
[By using formula(a + b) (a – b) = a² – b²]
= 1 – \(\frac{49}{113}\) = \(\frac{113-49}{113}\)
(1 + cos θ) (1 – cos θ) = \(\frac{64}{113}\) ……….(2)

Consider, \(\frac{(1+\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}{(1+\cos \theta)(1-\cos \theta)}=\frac{\frac{49}{113}}{\frac{64}{113}}\) [From (1) and (2)]

Hence \(\frac{(1+\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}{(1+\cos \theta)(1-\cos \theta)}=\frac{49}{64}\)

(ii) cot θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{7}{8}\)
cot² θ = (cot θ)²
cot² θ= (\(\frac{7}{8}\))²
⇒ cot² θ = \(\frac{49}{64}\).

Question 8.
If 3 cot A = 4 check whether \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} A}{1+\tan ^{2} A}\) = cos² A – sin² A or not.
Solution:
Let ABC be a right angled triangle with right angled at B.

It is given that 3 cot A = 4
cot A = \(\frac{4}{3}\)
But cot A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{BC}}\) [From fig.]
⇒ \(\frac{A B}{B C}=\frac{4}{3}\)
But \(\frac{A B}{B C}=\frac{4}{3}\) = k
⇒ AB = 4k, BC = 3k
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
(AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²
(AC)² = (4k)² + (3k)²
(AC)² = 16 k² + 9 k²
(AC)² = 25 k²
AC=± \(\sqrt{25 k^{2}}\)
AC = ± 5k

But AC = 5k.
[AC ≠ – 5k. because side cannot be negative]
sin A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{3 k}{5 k}=\frac{3}{5}\)

tan A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{3 k}{4 k}=\frac{3}{4}\)

cos A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{4 k}{5 k}=\frac{4}{5}\)

L.H.S. = \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{1+\tan ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}\)

∴ cos² A – sin² A = \(\frac{7}{25}\) ………..(2)

From (1) and (2),
L.H.S = R.H.S
Hence, \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{1+\tan ^{2} \mathrm{~A}}\) = cos² A – sin² A.

Question 9.
In triangle ABC, right angled at B, if tan A = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\). Find the value of:
(i) sin A cos C + cos A sin C
(ii) cos A cos C – sin A sin C.
Solution:
(i) Given: ABC with right angled at B

tan A = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) ……………..(1)
But tan A = \(\frac{B C}{A B}\) ……………(2)
From (1) and (2),
\(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
Let \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) = k
BC = k, AB = k
where k is constant of proportionality.
In right angled triangle ABC,
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
(AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²
or (AC)² = (Jk)² + (k)²
or AC² = 3k² + k²
or AC² = 4k²
or AC = ± \(\sqrt{4 k^{2}}\)
AC = ± 2k.
where AC = 2k
[AC ≠ – 2k side cannot be negative]

[sin A = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{k}{2 k}=\frac{1}{2}\)

cos C = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{k}{2 k}=\frac{1}{2}\)

cos A = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{\sqrt{3} k}{2 k}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

sin C = \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{\sqrt{3} k}{2 k}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)] …………….(3)

sin A cos C = \(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=\frac{1}{4}\)
cos A sin C = \(\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=\frac{3}{4}\)
sin A cos C + cos A sin C = \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{4}\)
= \(\frac{1+3}{4}\)
= \(\frac{4}{4}\) = 1
∴ sin A cos C + cos A sin C = 1.

sin A sin C = \(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\) [From (3)]

Question 10.
In ∆PQR, right angled at Q, PR + QR = 25 cm and PQ = 5 cm. Determine the values of sin P, cos P and tan P.
Solution:
Given: ∆PQR, right angled at Q

PR + QR = 25 cm
PQ = 5 cm
In right angled triangle PQR
By using Pythagoras Theorem,
(PR)² = (PQ)² + (RQ)²
or (PR)² = (5)² + (RQ)²
[∴ PR + QR = 25, QR = 25 – PR]
or (PR)² = 25 + [25 – PR]²
or (PR)² = 25 + (25)² + (PR)² – 2 × 25 × PR
or (PR)² = 25 + 625 + (PR)² – 50
or (PR)² – (PR)² + 50 PR = 650
or 50 PR = 650
or PR = \(\frac{650}{50}\)
or PR = 13 cm
QR = 25 – PR
QR = (25 – 13) cm
or QR = 12 cm.

sin P = \(\frac{Q R}{P R}=\frac{12}{13}\)

cos P = \(\frac{P Q}{P R}=\frac{5}{13}\)

tan P = \(\frac{Q R}{P Q}=\frac{12}{5}\)

Question 11.
State whether the following are true or false. Justify your answer.
(i) The value of tan A is always less than 1
(ii) sec A = \(\frac{12}{5}\) for some value of angle A.
(iii) cos A is abbreviation used for cosecant of angle A.
(iv) cot A is product of cot and A.
(v) sin θ = \(\frac{4}{3}\) for some angle θ.
Solution:
(i) False
∵ tan 60° = √3 = 1.732 > 1.

(ii) True; sec A = \(\frac{12}{5}\) = 240 > 1
∵ Sec A is always greater than 1.

(iii) False.
Because cos A is used for cosine A.

(iv) False.
Because cot A is cotangent of the angle A not the product of cot and A.

(v) False; sin θ = \(\frac{4}{3}\) = 1.666 > 1
Because sin θ is always less than 1.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 7 Coordinate Geometry Ex 7.4

Question 1.
Determine the ratio in which the line it + y – 4 = 0 divides the line segment joining the points A (2, – 2) and B (3, 7).
Solution:
Let line 2x + y – 4 = 0 divides the line segment joining the points A (2,- 2) and B(3, 7) at C (x, y) in the ratio k : 1

∴ Coordinates of C are x = \(\frac{3 k+2 \times 1}{k+1}=\frac{3 k+2}{k+1}\) and y = \(\frac{7 k+(-2) \times 1}{k+1}=\frac{7 k-2}{k+1}\)
∴ C \(\left[\frac{3 k+2}{k+1}, \frac{7 k-2}{k+1}\right]\). must lie on the line 2x + y – 4 = 0

i.e., 2\(\left(\frac{3 k+2}{k+1}\right)+\left(\frac{7 k-2}{k+1}\right)\) – 4 = 0
or \(\frac{6 k+4+7 k-2-4 k-4}{k+1}\) = 0
or 9k – 2 = 0
or 9k = 2
or k = \(\frac{2}{9}\).
∴ ratio k : 1 = \(\frac{2}{9}\) : 1 = 2 : 9.
Hence required ratio is 2 : 9.

Question 2.
Find a relation between x and y if (x, y) ; (1, 2) and (7, 0) are collinear.
Solution:
Let given points are A (x, y); B (1, 2) and C (7, 0).
Here x₁ = x, x₂ = 1, x₃ = 7
y₁ = y, y₂ = 2, y₃ = 0
∵ Three points are collinear
iff \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)] = 0
or \(\frac{1}{2}\) x (2 – 0) + 1 (0 – y) + 7 (y – 2)] = 0
or 2x – y + 7y – 14 = 0
or 2x + 6y – 14 = 0
or x + 3y – 7 = 0 is the required relation.

Question 3.
Find the centre of a cirçle passing through the points (6, —6); (3, —7) and (3,3).
Solution:
Let O (x, y) be the required centre of the circle which passes through points P(6, – 6); Q(3, – 7) and R (3, 3).
∴ radii of circle are equal.

∴ OP = OQ = OR
or (OP)² = (OQ)² = (OR)²
Now, (OP)² = (OQ)²
(x – 6)² + (y + 6)² = (x – 3)² + (y + 7)²
or x² + 36 – 12x + y² + 36 + 12y = x² + 9 – 6x + y² + 49 + 14y
or – 12x + 12y + 72 = – 6x + 14y + 58
or – 6x – 2y + 14 = 0
or 3x + y – 7 = 0 ………………(1)
Also, (OQ)² = (OR)²
or (x – 3)² + (y + 7)² = (x – 3)² + (y – 3)²
or (y + 7)² = (y – 3)²
or y² + 49 + 14y = y² + 9 – 6y
or 20y = – 40
y = \(\frac{-40}{20}\) = – 2
Substitute this value of)’ in (1), we get
3x – 2 – 7 = 0
or 3x – 9 = 0
or 3x = 9
or x = \(\frac{9}{3}\) = 3
∴ Required centre is (3, – 2).

Question 4.
The two opposite vertices of a square are (- 1, 2) and (3, 2). Find the coordinates of other two vertices.
Solution:
Let two opposite vertices of a square ACBD are A (- 1, 2) and B (3, 2) and coordinates of C are (x, y)
∵ Length of each sides of square are equal.
∴ AC = BC
or (AC)² = (BC)²
or (x + 1)² + (y – 2)² = (x – 3)² + (y – 2)²

or (x + 1)² = (x – 3)²
or x² + 1 + 2x = x² + 9 – 6x
or 8x = 8
or x = \(\frac{8}{8}\) = 1
Now, in rt ∠d ∆ACB,
Using Pythagoras Theorem,
(AC)² + (BC)² = (AB)²
(x + 1)² + (y – 2)² + (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = (3 + 1)² + (2 – 2)²
or x² + 1 + 2x + y² + 4 – 4y + x² + 9 – 6x + y² + 4 – 4y = 16
or 2x² + 2y² – 4x – 8y + 2 = 0
or x² + y² – 2x – 4y + 1 = 0
Putting the value of x = 1 in (1), we get
(1)² + y² – 2 (1) – 4y + 1 = 0
or y² – 4y = 0
or y (y – 4) = 0
Either y = 0 or y – 4 = 0
Either y = 0 or y = 4
∴ y = 0, 4
∴ Required points are (1. 0) and (1.4).

Question 5.
The Class X students of a secondary school in Krishinagar have been allotted a rectangular plot of land for their gardening activity. Sapling of Gulmohar are planted on the boundary at a distance of 1m from each other. There ¡s a triangular grassy lawn in the plot as shown in the Fig. The students are to sow seeds of flowering plants on the remaining area of the plot.

(i) Taking A as origin, find the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle.
(ii) What will be the coordinates of the vertices of A PQR if C is the origin? Also calculate the areas of the triangles In these cases. What do you observe?
Solution:
Case I:
When taking A as origin then AD is X-axis and AB is Y-axis.
∴ Coordinates of triangular grassy Lawn
PQR are P (4, 6); Q (3, 2) and R(6, 5).
Here x₁ = 4, x₂ = 3, x₃ = 6
y₁ = 6, y₂ = 2, y₃ = 50
Now, area of ∆PQR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [4 (2 – 5) + 3 (5 – 6) + 6 (6 – 2)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [- 12 – 3 + 24] = \(\frac{9}{2}\)
= 4.5 sq. units.

Case II: When taking C as origin then CB is X – axis and CD is Y – axis.
∴ Coordinates of triangular grassy lawn PQR
are P(12, 2); Q (13,6) and R (10, 3)
Here x₁ = 12, x₂ = 13, x₃ = 10
y₁ = 2, y₂ = 6, y₃ = 3
Now, area of ∆PQR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [12 (6 – 3) + 13 (3 – 2) + 10 (2 – 6)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [36 + 13 – 40]
= \(\frac{9}{2}\) = 4.5 sq. units.
From above two cases, it is clear that area of triangular grassy lawn is same.

Question 6.
The vertices of a ∆ABC are A (4, 6), B (1, 5) and C (7, 2). A line is drawn to intersect sides AB and AC at D and E respectively, such that \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{1}{4}\) Calculate the area of the ∆ADE and compare it with the area of ∆ABC. (Recall Theorem 6.2 and Theorem 6.6).
Solution:
The vertices of ∆ABC are A (4, 6); B (1, 5) and C (7, 2)

A line is drawn to intersect sides AB and AC at D (x₁, y₁) and E (x₂, y₂) respectively such that \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{AC}}=\frac{1}{4}\).

∴ D and E divides AB and AC in the ratio 1 : 3.
∴ Coordinates of D are
x₁ = \(\frac{1(1)+3(4)}{1+3}=\frac{1+12}{4}=\frac{13}{4}\) and y₁ = \(\frac{1(5)+3(6)}{1+3}=\frac{5+18}{4}=\frac{23}{4}\)

∴ Coordinates of D are (\(\frac{13}{4}\), \(\frac{23}{4}\))
Now, coordinates of E are
x₂ = \(\frac{1(7)+3(4)}{1+3}=\frac{7+12}{4}=\frac{19}{4}\) and y₂ = \(\frac{1(2)+3(6)}{1+3}=\frac{2+18}{4}=\frac{20}{4}=5\)

∴ Coordinates of E are (\(\frac{19}{4}\), 5).

In ∆ADE
x₁ = 4, x₂ = \(\frac{13}{4}\), x₃ = \(\frac{19}{4}\)
y₂ = 6, y₂ = \(\frac{23}{4}\), y₃ = 5
area of ∆ADE = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left[4\left(\frac{23}{4}-5\right)+\frac{13}{4}(5-6)+\frac{19}{4}\left(6-\frac{23}{4}\right)\right]\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left[4\left(\frac{23-20}{4}\right)+\frac{13}{4}(-1)+\frac{19}{4}\left(\frac{24-23}{4}\right)\right]\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left[3-\frac{13}{4}+\frac{19}{16}\right]\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{48-52+19}{16}=\frac{15}{16}\right]\)
= \(\frac{15}{32}\) sq. units.

In ∆ABC
x₁ = 4, x₂ = 1, x₃ = 7
y₂ = 6, y₂ = 5, y₃ = 2
Area of ∆ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [4 (5 – 2) + 1 (2 – 6) + 7 (6 – 5)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [12 – 4 + 7] = \(\frac{15}{2}\) sq.units.

Now, \(\frac{\text { area of } \Delta \mathrm{ADE}}{\text { area of } \Delta \mathrm{ABC}}=\frac{\frac{15}{32}}{\frac{15}{2}}=\frac{15}{32} \times \frac{2^{1}}{16_{1}}\)

= \(\frac{1}{16}=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2}\)

= \(\left(\frac{A D}{A B}\right)^{2} \text { or }\left(\frac{A E}{A C}\right)^{2}\).

Question 7.
Let (4, 2), B (6, 5) and C (1, 4) be the vertices of ∆ABC.
(i) The median from A meets BC at D. Find the coordinates of the point D.
(ii) Find the coordinates of the potnt P on AD such that AP : PD = 2 : 1
(iii) Find the coordinates of points Q and R on medians BE and CF respectively such that BQ : QE = 2 : 1 and CR : RF = 2 : 1.
(iv) What do you observe?
[Note : The point which is common to all the three medians ¡s called centroid and this point divides each median in the ratio 2: 1]
(v) if A (x₁, y₁), B (x₂, y₂) and C (x₃, y₃) are the vertices of ∆ABC, find the coordinates of the centroid of the triangle.
Solution:
Given that vertices of ∆ABC are A (4, 2); B (6, 5) and C (1, 4).
(i) AD is the median from the vertex A.
∴ D is the mid point of BC.

then x = \(\frac{6+1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\) and y = \(\frac{5+4}{2}=\frac{9}{2}\)
Hence, coordinates of D is (\(\frac{7}{2}\), \(\frac{9}{2}\)).

(ii) Let P(x, y) be point on AD such that AP : PD = 2 : 1

then x = \(\frac{2\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)+1(4)}{2+1}\)
= \(\frac{7+4}{3}=\frac{11}{3}\)

and y = \(\frac{2\left(\frac{9}{2}\right)+1(2)}{2+1}\)
= \(\frac{9+2}{3}=\frac{11}{3}\)

Hence, Coordinates of P is (\(\frac{11}{3}\), \(\frac{11}{3}\)).

(iii) Le BE and CF are the medians of ∆ABC to AC and AB respectively.
∴ E and F are mid points of AC and AB respectively.

Coordinate of E are
x₁ = \(\frac{4+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\)
and y₁ = \(\frac{4+2}{2}=\frac{6}{2}\) = 3
Coordinate of E are (\(\frac{5}{2}\), 3)
Coordinate of F are
x₂ = \(\frac{4+6}{2}=\frac{10}{2}\) = 5
and y₂ = \(\frac{5+2}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\)
∴ Coordinate of F are (5, \(\frac{7}{2}\))
Now, Q divides BE such that BQ : QE = 2: 1

∴ Coordinate of Q are \(\left(\frac{2\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)+6(1)}{2+1}, \frac{2(3)+1(5)}{2+1}\right)\)

= \(\left(\frac{5+6}{3}, \frac{6+5}{3}\right)\) = \(\left(\frac{11}{3}, \frac{11}{3}\right)\)

Also, R divides CF such that CR : RF = 2 : 1

∴ Coordinate of R are = \(\left(\frac{2(5)+1(1)}{2+1}, \frac{2\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)+(4)}{2+1}\right)\)

= \(\left(\frac{10+1}{3}, \frac{7+4}{3}\right)\)

= \(\left(\frac{11}{3}, \frac{11}{3}\right)\)

(iv) From above discussion, it is clear that coordinates of P, Q and R are same and coincide at a point, is known as centroid of triangle, which divides each median in the ratio 2: 1.

(v) The vertices of given ∆ABC are
A (x₁, y₁); B (x₂, y₂) and C (x₃, y₃).

Let AD is median of E, ∆ABC.
∴ D is the mid point of BC then coordinates of D are \(\left(\frac{x_{2}+x_{3}}{2}, \frac{y_{2}+y_{3}}{2}\right)\)

Now, G be the centroid of ABC, which divides the median AD in the ratio 2: 1
∴ Coordinates of G are [using (iv)]

= \(\left[\frac{2\left(\frac{x_{2}+x_{3}}{2}\right)+1\left(x_{1}\right)}{2+1}, \frac{2\left(\frac{y_{2}+y_{3}}{2}\right)+1\left(y_{1}\right)}{2+1}\right]\)

= \(\left[\frac{x_{2}+x_{3}+x_{1}}{3}, \frac{y_{2}+y_{3}+y_{1}}{3}\right]\)

= \(\left[\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}}{3}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}+y_{3}}{3}\right]\).

Question 8.
ABCD is a rectangle formed by the points A (- 1, – 1), B (- 1, 4), C (5, 4) and D (5, – 1). P, Q R and S are the mid points
of AB, BC, CD and DA respectively. Is the quadrilateral PQRS a square ? a rectangle? or a rhombus ? Justify your answer.
Solution:
Given: The vertices ot’ given rectangle ABCD are
A(- 1, – 1); B(- 1, 4); C(5, 4) and D (5, – 1).

∵ P is the mid point of AB.
∴ Coordinates of P are \(\left(\frac{-1-1}{2}, \frac{-1+4}{2}\right)=\left(-1, \frac{3}{2}\right)\)
∵ Q is the mid point of BC.
∴ Co-ordinates of Q are \(\left(\frac{-5+5}{2}, \frac{4+4}{2}\right)\) = (2, 4)
∵ R is the mid point of CD.
∴ Coordinates of R are \(\left(\frac{5+5}{2}, \frac{4+1}{2}\right)=\left(5, \frac{3}{2}\right)\)

∵ S is the mid point of AD.
∴ Co-ordinates of S are \(\left(\frac{5-1}{2}, \frac{-1-1}{2}\right)\) = (2, -1)

PQ = \(\sqrt{(2+1)^{2}+\left(4-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{9 \times \frac{25}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{36+25}{4}}\)

PQ = \(\sqrt{\frac{61}{4}}\)

QR = \(\sqrt{(5-2)^{2}+\left(\frac{3}{2}-4\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{(3)^{2}+\left(\frac{3-8}{2}\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{9+\frac{25}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{36+25}{4}}\)

QR = \(\sqrt{\frac{61}{4}}\)

RS = \(\sqrt{(2-5)^{2}+\left(-1-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{9+\frac{25}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{36+25}{4}}\)

RS = \(\sqrt{\frac{61}{4}}\)

and SP = \(\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+\left(\frac{3}{2}+1\right)^{2}}\)

SP = \(\sqrt{9+\frac{25}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{61}{4}}\)

Also PR = \(\sqrt{(5+1)^{2}+\left(\frac{3}{2}-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}}\)
PR = \(\sqrt{36+0}=\sqrt{36}\) = 6
QS = \(\sqrt{(2-2)^{2}+(4+1)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{0+25}=\sqrt{25}\) = 5.

Form above discussion it is clear that PQ = QR = RS = SP.
Also, PR ≠ QS.
⇒ All sides of quad. PQRS are equal but their diagonals are not equal.
Quad. PQRS is a rhombus.

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [- 4 (5 + 2) + (- 3) (- 2 + 2) + 3 (- 2 + 5)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [12 + 0 + 9] = \(\frac{21}{2}\) sq. units.

In ∆CDA
x₁ = 3, x₂ = 2, x₃ = – 4
y₁ = – 2, y₂ = 3, y₃= – 2
Area of ∆CDA = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [3 (3 + 2) + 2 (- 2 + 2) + (-4) (- 2 – 3)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [20 + 15 + 0] = \(\frac{35}{2}\) sq. units.

Now, Area of quadritateral ABCD = (Area of ∆ABC) + (Area of ∆ACD)
= \(\frac{21}{2}+\frac{35}{2}=\frac{21+35}{2}\)
= \(\frac{56}{2}\) = 28 sq. units.

Question 5.
You have studied in Class IX, (Chapter 9, Q. 3) that a median of a triangle divides it into two triangles of equal areas. Verify this result for ∆ABC whose vertices are A(4, – 6), B(3, – 2) and C(5, 2).
Solution:
Given that coordinates of the vertices of ∆ABC are A(4, – 6); B (3, – 2) and C (5, 2)
Let CD is the median i.e. D is the mid point of AB which divides AABC into two pails i.e.

∆ADC and ∆CDB
Coordinates of D = \(\left(\frac{4+3}{2}, \frac{-6-3}{2}\right)\)
= \(\left(\frac{7}{2}, \frac{-8}{2}\right)\) = (3.5,- 4).

In ∆ADC
x₁ = 4, x₂ = 3.5, x₃ = 5
y₁ = – 6, y₂ = -4, y₃ = 2
Area of ∆ADC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [4(—4—2)+3.5(2+6)÷5(—6+4)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [- 24 + 28 – 101]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × -6
= 3 sq. units (∵ area cannot be negative).

In ∆CDB
x = 5, x = 35, x = 3
y = 2, y = – 4, y = – 2
Area of ∆CDB = \(\frac{1}{2}\) [x₁ (y₂ – y₃) + x₂ (y₃ – y₁) + x₃ (y₁ – y₂)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [5 (- 4 + 2) + 3.5 (- 2 – 2) + 3 (2 + 4)]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) [- 10 – 14 + 18]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × – 6 = – 3
= 3 sq. units(∵ area cannot be negalive)
From above discussion it is clear that area of ∆ADC = area of ∆CDB = 3 sq. units
Hence, a median of a triangle divides it into two triangles of equal areas.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 7 Coordinate Geometry Ex 7.2

Q.uestion 1.
Find the co-ordinates of the point which divides the join (- 1, 7) and (4, – 3) in the ratio 2 : 3.
Solution:
Let required point be P (x, y) which divides the join of given points A (- 1, 7)
and B (4, – 3) in the ratio of 2 : 3.
(-1, 7) (x, y) (4, – 3)

∴ x = \(\frac{2 \times 4+3 \times-1}{2+3}=\frac{8-3}{5}=\frac{5}{5}=1\)

and y = \(\frac{2 \times-3+3 \times 7}{2+3}=\frac{-6+21}{5}=\frac{15}{5}=3\)
Hence, required point be (1, 3).

Question 2.
Find the co-ordinates of the points of trisection of the line segment joining (4, – 1) and (2, – 3).
Solution:
Let P (x₁, y₁) and Q (x₂, y₂) be the required points which trisect the line segment joining A (4, – 1)and B (- 2, – 3) i.e., P(x₁, y₁) divides AB in ratio 1: 2 and Q divides AB in ratio 2 : 1.

∴ x₁ = \(\frac{1 \times-2+2 \times 4}{1+2}=\frac{-2+8}{3}=\frac{6}{3}=2\)

and y₁ = \(\frac{1 \times-3+2 \times-1}{1+2}=\frac{-3-2}{3}=-\frac{5}{3}\)
∴ P(x₁, y₁) be (2, \(-\frac{5}{3}\))

Now, x₂ = \(\frac{2 \times-2+1 \times 4}{2+1}\)
= \(\frac{-4+4}{3}\) = 0

y₂ = \(\frac{2 \times-3+1 \times-1}{2+1}=\frac{-6-1}{3}=-\frac{7}{3}\)

∴ Q(x₂, y₂) be (0, \(-\frac{7}{3}\))
Hence, required points be (2, \(-\frac{5}{3}\)) and (0, \(-\frac{7}{3}\)).

Question 3.
To conduct Sports Day activities, in your rectangular shaped school ground ABCD, lines have been drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1 m each. 100 flower pots have been placed at a distance of 1m from each other along AD, as shown in fig. Niharika runs \(\frac{1}{4}\) th the distance AD on the 2nd line and posts a green flag.

Preet runs \(\frac{1}{5}\) th the distance AD on the eighth line and posts a red flag. What is the distance betweenboth the flags? If Rashmi has to post a blue flag exactly half way between the line (segment) joining the two flags, where should she post her flag?

Solution:
In the given figure, we take A as origin. Taking x-axis along AB and y-axis along AD.
Position of green flag = distance covered by Niharika
= Niharika runs \(\frac{1}{4}\)th distance AD on the 2nd line
= \(\frac{1}{4}\) × 100 = 25 m
∴ Co-ordinates of the green flag are (2, 25)
Now, position of red flag = distance covered by Preet = Preet runs \(\frac{1}{5}\)th the distance AD on the 8th line
= \(\frac{1}{5}\) × 100 = 20 m.
Co-ordinates of red flag are (8, 20)
∴ distance between Green and Red flags = \(\sqrt{(8-2)^{2}+(20-25)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{36+25}=\sqrt{61}\) m.
Position of blue flag = mid point of green flag and red flag
= \(\left(\frac{2+8}{2}, \frac{25+20}{2}\right)\)
= (5, 22.5).
Hence, blue flag is in the 5th line and at a distance of 22.5 m along AD.

Question 4.
Find the ratio in which (he segment joining the points (- 3, 10) and (6, – 8) is divided by (- 1, 6).
Solution:
Let point P (- 1, 6) divides the line segment joining the points A (- 3, 10) and B (6, – 8) the ratio K : 1.

∴ -1 = \(\frac{6 \times \mathrm{K}-3 \times 1}{\mathrm{~K}+1}\)
or – K – 1 = 6K – 3
or – K – 6K = – 3 + 1
or – 7K = – 2
K : 1 = \(\frac{2}{7}\) : 1 = 2 : 7
Hence, required ratio is 2 : 7.

Question 5.
Find the ratio in which the line segment joining A (1, – 5) and B (- 4, 5) is divided by the x-axis. Also find the co
ordinates of the point of division.
Solution:
Let required point on x-axis is P (x, 0) which divides the line segment joining the points A (1, – 5) and B (- 4, 5) in the
ratio K : 1.

Consider, y co-ordinates of P ¡s:
0 = \(\frac{5 \times \mathrm{K}+(-5) \times 1}{\mathrm{~K}+1}\)

or 0 = \(\frac{5 \mathrm{~K}-5}{\mathrm{~K}+1}\)
or 5K – 5 = 0
or 5K = 5
or K = \(\frac{5}{5}\) = 1
∴ Required ratio is K : 1 = 1 : 1.
Now, x co-ordinate of P is:
x = \(\frac{-4 \times K+1 \times 1}{K+1}\)
Putting the value of K = 1, we get:
x = \(\frac{-4 \times 1+1 \times 1}{1+1}=\frac{-4+1}{2}\)
x = \(-\frac{3}{2}\)
Hence, required point be (\(-\frac{3}{2}\), 0).

Question 6.
If (1, 2); (4, y); (x, 6) and (3, 5)are the vertices of a parallelogram taken in order, find x and y.
Solution:
Let points of parallelogram ABCD are A (1, 2) (4, y) ; C (x, 6) and D (3, 5)
But diagonals of a || gm bisect each other.
Case I. When E is the mid point of A (1, 2) and C (x, 6)
∴ Co-ordinates of E are:
E = \(\left(\frac{x+1}{2}, \frac{6+2}{2}\right)\)
E = (\(\frac{x+1}{2}\), 4) …………..(1)

Case II. When E is the mid point B (4, y) and D (3, 5)
∴ Co-ordinates of E are:

E = \(\left(\frac{3+4}{2}, \frac{5+y}{2}\right)\)

E = \(\left(\frac{7}{2}, \frac{5+y}{2}\right)\) …………….(2)
But values of E in (1) and (2) are same, so comparing the coordinates, we get
\(\frac{x+1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\)
or x + 1 = 7
or x = 6.

and 4 = \(\frac{5+y}{2}\)
or 8 = 5 + y
or y = 3
Hence, values of x and y are 6 and 3.

Question 7.
Find the coordinates of a point A, where AB is the diameter of a circle whose centre is (2, – 3) and B is (1, 4).
Solution:
Let, coordinates of A be (x, y). But, centre is the’ niij ioint of the vertices of the diameter.

∴ O is the mid point of A(x, y) and B(1, 4)
∴ \(\left(\frac{x+1}{2}, \frac{y+4}{2}\right)\) = (2, -3)
On comparing, we get
\(\frac{x+1}{2}\)
or x + 1 = 4
or x = 3

and \(\frac{y+4}{2}\) = – 3
or y + 4 = – 6
or y = – 10
Hence, required point A be (3, – 10).

Question 8.
If A and B are (- 2, – 2) and (2, – 4) respectively, find the coordinates of P such that AP = AB and P lies ¡n the line segment AB.
Solution:
Let required point P be (x, y)
Also AP = \(\frac{3}{7}\) AB …(Given)
But, PB = AB – AP
= AB – \(\frac{3}{7}\) AB = \(\frac{7-3}{7}\) AB
PB = \(\frac{4}{7}\) AB
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{AP}}{\mathrm{PB}}=\frac{\frac{3}{7} \mathrm{AB}}{\frac{4}{7} \mathrm{AB}}=\frac{3}{4}\).

∴ P divides given points A and B in ratio 3 : 4.
Now,
x = \(\frac{3 \times 2+4 \times-2}{3+4}\)

or x = \(\frac{6-8}{7}=-\frac{2}{7}\)

and y = \(\frac{3 \times-4+4 \times-2}{3+4}\)
= \(\frac{-12-8}{7}=-\frac{20}{7}\)

Hence, coordinates of P be (\(-\frac{2}{7}\), \(-\frac{20}{7}\)).

Question 9.
Find the coordinates of the points which divides the line segment joining A (- 2, 2) and B (2, 8) into four equal parts.
Solution:
Let required points are C, D and E which divide the line segment joming the points A (- 2, 2) and B (2, 8) into four equal parts. Then D is mid point of A and B ; C is the mid point of A and D ; E is the mid point of D and B such that
AC = CD = DE = EB

Now, mid point of A and B (i.e., Coordinates of D)
= \(\left(\frac{-2+2}{2}, \frac{2+8}{2}\right)\) = (0, 5)

Mid point of A and D (i.e., Coordinates of C)
= \(\left(\frac{-2+0}{2}, \frac{2+5}{2}\right)=\left(-1, \frac{7}{2}\right)\)

Mid point of D and B (i.e., Coordinates of E)
= \(\left(\frac{2+0}{2}, \frac{8+5}{2}\right)=\left(1, \frac{13}{2}\right)\)

Hence, requned points be (0, 5), (-1, \(\frac{7}{2}\)), (1, \(\frac{13}{2}\)).

Question 10.
Find the area of a rhombus if the vertices are (3, 0); (4, 5); (- 1, 4) and(- 2, – 1) taken in order.
[Hint: Areas of a rhombus = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (Product of its diagonals)]
Solution:
Let coordinates of rhombus ABCD are A (3, 0); B(4, 5); C(-1, 4) and D(- 2, – 1).
Diagonal, AC = \(\sqrt{(-1-3)^{2}+(4-0)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{16+16}=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16 \times 2}\) = 4√2

and diagonal BD
BD = \(\sqrt{(-2-4)^{2}+(-1-5)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{36+36}=\sqrt{72}=\sqrt{36 \times 2}\) = 6√2.

∴ Area of rhombus ABCD = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × AC × BD
ABCD = [\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 4√2 × 6√2] sq. units
(\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 24 × 2) sq. units
= 24 sq. units
Hence, area of rhombus is 24 sq. units.
