Question : I is the incenter of a triangle ABC. If $\angle$ ABC = 65$^\circ$ and $\angle$ ACB = 55$^\circ$, then the value of $\angle$ BIC is: 

Option 1: 130$^\circ$

Option 2: 120$^\circ$

Option 3: 140$^\circ$

Option 4: 110$^\circ$

Question : The value of $\frac{\sin \theta+\cos \theta-1}{\sin \theta-\cos \theta+1} \times \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}}$ is:

Option 1: -2

Option 2: 2

Option 3: -1

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 8th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : $\frac{\sin \theta+\cos \theta-1}{\sin \theta-\cos \theta+1} \times \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}}$
= $\frac{\sin \theta+\cos \theta-1}{\sin \theta-\cos \theta+1}\times\frac{\sin \theta-\cos \theta-1}{\sin \theta-\cos \theta-1} \times \sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}\times\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}$
= $\frac{(\sin \theta-1)^2-\cos^2 \theta}{(\sin \theta-\cos \theta)^2-1^2} \times \sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)^2}{1^2-\sin^2 \theta}}$
= $\frac{\sin^2 \theta+1-2\sin\theta-\cos^2 \theta}{\sin^2 \theta+\cos^2 \theta-2\sin\theta\cos\theta-1} \times \sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)^2}{\cos^2 \theta}}$
