Question : If $\sin\theta +\cos\theta=\sqrt{2}\sin(90^{\circ}-\theta)$, then the value of $\cot\theta$ is:
Option 1: $-\sqrt{2}-1$
Option 2: $\sqrt{2}-1$
Option 3: $\sqrt{2}+1$
Option 4: $-\sqrt{2}+1$
Correct Answer: $\sqrt{2}+1$
Solution : Given: $\sin\theta +\cos\theta=\sqrt{2}\sin(90^{\circ}-\theta)$ $⇒\sin\theta +\cos\theta=\sqrt{2}\cos\theta$ $⇒\sin\theta=(\sqrt{2}-1)\cos\theta$ $⇒\cot\theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}-1}$ By rationalisation, $\cot\theta=\sqrt{2}+1$ Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt{2}+1$.

Question : The compound interest on Rs.1000 at 10% per annum for 3 years in (Rs) is:
Option 1: Rs. 1331
Option 2: Rs. 331
Option 3: Rs. 300
Option 4: Rs. 1300
Correct Answer: Rs. 331
Solution : Given: Principal = Rs.1000 Rate of Interest = 10% Time = 3 years Formula used: CI = $P(1+\frac{R}{100})^{n} - P$ where n is the number of years. Calculation: C = $1000(1+\frac{10}{100})^{3} - 1000$ CI = $1000(1.331) -1000$ CI = $1331 - 1000$ CI =
