Question : $\frac{\sin^4 \theta+\cos^4 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}=$____.
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: – 1
Option 4: 0
Correct Answer: 1
Solution : Given: $\frac{\sin^4 \theta+\cos^4 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$ = $\frac{\sin^4\theta+\cos^4\theta+2\sin^2\theta \cos^2\theta-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$ = $\frac{(\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta)^2-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin ^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$ = $\frac{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}{1-2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta}$ [$\because \sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1$] = $1$ Hence,

Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
A piano teacher described an interesting encounter she had had with a young lady who came to inquire about music lessons. The young lady asked her, “How long will this course take?
My father tells me that it is in fashion now to be able to play musical instruments and that I should learn one quickly. I want something that will be quick, fast, and easy like, like….” When the amused teacher explained that it would take a lifetime of meticulous practice to learn music, her face fell and, needless to say, she never came back. The single most important factor that distinguishes those of us who succeed in any venture and those of us who don’t is this ‘instant coffee’ attitude. Most of us want results quickly. We want to reach the top immediately and get worked up when things go wrong. Perseverance and patience are forgotten words. We get upset, frustrated, and angry when a skill or activity requires us to put in a lot of effort and time. We get dejected and want to give it up. But such thinking serves no good. For, it doesn’t solve the problem. Life is tough for those with an ‘instant coffee’ attitude.
Success, real success, and happiness come to those who have a ‘bread-making’ attitude those who are willing to knead the dough, wait for hours for it to rise, only to punch it down and knead some more, wait for another couple of hours for it to rise again, and then bake it before it is ready to be eaten. Nothing is instantaneous. For every endeavour – whether in the area of career, academics, music, sports, relationships, physical fitness or even spirituality – it is a long, arduous journey.
Only if we are willing to put in the time, and painstaking effort and have faith, can we get results. If we don’t accept this difficult but true fact of life, our lives will be far from being happy and fulfilling. For we may not make that extra effort which can change the course of life dramatically, for the good. The major problem with these ‘instant coffee’ solutions is that they are invariably short-lived. If we stubbornly refuse to give up this search for quick solutions, all we do is end up on the wrong track.
Question:
What do you understand by the term ‘instant coffee attitude’?
Option 1: Passion to learn something
Option 2: Short-lived pleasure
Option 3: Expecting quick results
Option 4: Keeping up with the latest trends
Correct Answer: Expecting quick results
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
In the last sentence of the last paragraph, it states that the instant coffee attitude implies short-lived or instant solutions, which often lead to the wrong track.
Therefore, the correct answer is: expecting quick results
