Question

Evaluate the following

sin2 30° + sin2 45° + sin2 60° + sin2 90°

Advertisements

Solution

sin2 30° + sin2 45° + sin2 60° + sin2 90°  .....(1)

`sin 30^@ = 1/2     sin 45^@ = 1/sqrt2`

`sin 60^@ = sqrt3/2   sin 90^@ = 1`

By substituting above values in (i), we get

`= [1/2]^2 + [1/sqrt2]^2 + [sqrt3/2]^2 + [1]^2`

`= 1/4 + 1/2 + 3/4 + 1 => (1 + 3)/4 + (1 + 2)/2`

`=> 1 + 3/2 = (2 + 3)/2 = 5/2`

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
