Question : If $\sin\theta+\cos\theta=\sqrt{2}\cos\theta$, then the value of $\cot\theta$ is:
Option 1: $\sqrt{2}+1$
Option 2: $\sqrt{2}-1$
Option 3: $\sqrt{3}-1$
Option 4: $\sqrt{3}+1$
Correct Answer: $\sqrt{2}+1$
Solution : $\sin\theta+\cos\theta=\sqrt{2}\cos\theta$ ⇒ $\sin \theta = (\sqrt{2}-1)\cos\theta$ ⇒ $\frac{\sin \theta}{(\sqrt{2}-1)}=\cos\theta$ ⇒ $\frac{\sin \theta(\sqrt{2}+1)}{2-1}=\cos\theta$ ⇒ $\frac{\sin \theta(\sqrt{2}+1)}{2-1}=\cos\theta$ ⇒ $\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}=\sqrt{2}+1$ $\therefore\cot \theta=\sqrt{2}+1$ Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt{2}+1$.
Question : The value of $\frac{1}{4-\sqrt{15}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{15}-\sqrt{14}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}-\sqrt{13}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{12}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{12}-\sqrt{11}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{10}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}-3}-\frac{1}{3-\sqrt{8}}$ is:
Option 1: $2-2 \sqrt{2}$
Option 2: $4+2 \sqrt{2}$
Option 3: $4-2 \sqrt{2}$
Option 4: $2+2 \sqrt{2}$
Correct Answer: $4-2 \sqrt{2}$
Solution : This is a telescoping series, where each term cancels out a part of the next term. $\frac{1}{4-\sqrt{15}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{15}-\sqrt{14}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}-\sqrt{13}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{12}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{12}-\sqrt{11}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{10}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}-3}-\frac{1}{3-\sqrt{8}}$ Rationalising the denominator and use the formula $a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)$, we get, $=\frac{\sqrt{15}+4}{1}-\frac{\sqrt{15}+\sqrt{14}}{1}+\frac{\sqrt{14}+\sqrt{13}}{1}-\frac{\sqrt{13}+\sqrt{12}}{1}+\frac{\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{11}}{1}-\frac{\sqrt{11}+\sqrt{10}}{1}+\frac{\sqrt{10}+3}{1}-\frac{3+\sqrt{8}}{1}$ $=\sqrt{15}+4-\sqrt{15}-\sqrt{14}+\sqrt{14}+\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{10}+\sqrt{10}+3-3-\sqrt{8}$ $=4-\sqrt{8}$ $=4-2\sqrt{2}$ Hence, the correct answer is $4-2\sqrt{2}$.
