Question

Evaluate the following

cos 60° cos 45° - sin 60° ∙ sin 45°

Advertisements

Solution

cos 60° cos 45° - sin 60° ∙ sin 45° …(i)

By trigonometric ratios we know that,

`cos 60^@ = 1/2 cos 45^@ = 1/sqrt2`

`sin 60^@ = sqrt3/2    sin 45^@ = 1/sqrt2`

By substituting above value in (i), we get

`1/2. 1/sqrt2 - sqrt3/2. 1/sqrt2 => (1 - sqrt3)/(2sqrt2)`

Prove that sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`.

Proof: L.H.S. = sec θ + tan θ

= `1/square + square/square`

= `square/square`  ......`(∵ sec θ = 1/square, tan θ = square/square)`

= `((1 + sin θ) square)/(cos θ  square)`  ......[Multiplying `square` with the numerator and denominator]

= `(1^2 - square)/(cos θ  square)`

= `square/(cos θ  square)`

= `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)` = R.H.S.

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

∴ sec θ + tan θ = `cos θ/(1 - sin θ)`


Prove that: cot θ + tan θ = cosec θ·sec θ

Proof: L.H.S. = cot θ + tan θ

= `square/square + square/square`  ......`[∵ cot θ = square/square, tan θ = square/square]`

= `(square + square)/(square xx square)`  .....`[∵ square + square = 1]`

= `1/(square xx square)`

= `1/square xx 1/square`

= cosec θ·sec θ  ......`[∵ "cosec"  θ = 1/square, sec θ = 1/square]`

= R.H.S.

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

∴ cot θ + tan θ = cosec·sec θ
