- Find the coordinates of the centre of the circle passing through the points P(6, -6), Q(3, -7) and R(3, 3). Answer: (3, -2) Let the centre be C(x, y); CP = CQ = CR. CQ²=CR² : (x-3)²+(y+7)²=(x-3)²+(y-3)² gives 14y+49=-6y+9 , so y=-2 . CP²=CQ² : (x-6... 1
- Find the possible pairs of coordinates of the fourth vertex D of the parallelogram, if three of its vertices are A(5, 6), B(1, -2) and C(3, -2). Answer: D(7, 6) if the parallelogram is ABCD; the other possible positions are D(3, 6) and D(-1, -10). Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect e... 1
- Find the slope of the diagonals of a quadrilateral with vertices A(1, 7), B(6, 3), C(0, -3) and D(-3, 3). Answer: Slope of AC = 10, slope of BD = 0 Slope =y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁ . Diagonal AC: -3-7/0-1=-10/-1=10 . Diagonal BD: 3-3/-3-6=0/-9=0 (BD is paralle... 1
- sinθ cosecθ = ? (A) 1 (B) 0 (C) 1/2 (D) √2 Answer: (A) 1 cscθ=1/sinθ , so sinθ·cscθ=sinθ·dfrac1sinθ=1 . 1
- cosec45° = ? (A) 1/√2 (B) √2 (C) √3/2 (D) 2/√3 Answer: (B) √2 sin45^°=dfrac1sqrt2 , so csc45^°=dfrac1sin45^°=sqrt2 . Option (A) is sin45^° itself and (D) is csc60^° . 1
- 1 + tan²θ = ? (A) cot²θ (B) cosec²θ (C) sec²θ (D) tan²θ Answer: (C) sec²θ Dividing sin²θ+cos²θ=1 by cos²θ gives tan²θ+1=sec²θ . (The identity with csc²θ is 1+cot²θ=csc²θ .) 1
- When we see at a higher level, from the horizontal line, angle formed is ........ (A) angle of elevation. (B) angle of depression. (C) 0 (D) straight angle. Answer: (A) angle of elevation. When the object is above the observer's horizontal line of sight, the line of vision is raised and the angle... 1
- If sinθ = 11/61, find the values of cosθ using trigonometric identity. Answer: cosθ = 60/61 sin²θ+cos²θ=1 cos²θ=1-(11/61)²=3721-121/3721=3600/3721 cosθ=60/61 (taking θ as an acute angle, so cosθ is positive). 1
- Find the distance between the points W(-7/2, 4), X(11, 4). Answer: WX = 29/2 Distance formula: d=√((x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²) . Both points have y-coordinate 4, so WX is parallel to the X-axis. WX=√((11+7/2)... 1
- Determine whether the points are collinear: A(1, -3), B(2, -5), C(-4, 7). Answer: A, B, C are collinear. Three points are collinear if the sum of two of the distances equals the third. AB=√(1²+(-2)²)=sqrt5 BC=√((-6... 1
- Determine whether the points are collinear: L(-2, 3), M(1, -3), N(5, 4). Answer: L, M, N are not collinear. Three points are collinear if the sum of two of the distances equals the third. LM=√(3²+(-6)²)=√(45)=3sqr... 1
