Question : If $\tan\alpha=2$, then the value of $\frac{\operatorname{cosec}^{2}\alpha-\sec^{2}\alpha}{\operatorname{cosec}^{2}\alpha+\sec^{2}\alpha}$ is:
Option 1: $-\frac{15}{9}$
Option 2: $-\frac{3}{5}$
Option 3: $\frac{3}{5}$
Option 4: $\frac{17}{5}$
Correct Answer: $-\frac{3}{5}$
Solution : Given: $\tan\alpha=2$ We know that $\sec^{2}\alpha = 1 + \tan^{2}\alpha$ and $\operatorname{cosec}^{2}\alpha = 1 + \cot^{2}\alpha$ Since $\tan\alpha = 2$, we have $\sec^{2}\alpha = 1 + (2)^{2} = 5$ Also, $\cot\alpha = \frac{1}{\tan\alpha} = \frac{1}{2}$ So $\operatorname{cosec}^{2}\alpha = 1 + (\frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{5}{4}$ Putting the

Question : ABCD is a rhombus with $\angle$ABC = 52°. The measure of $\angle$ACD is:
Option 1: 54°
Option 2: 26°
Option 3: 48°
Option 4: 64°
Correct Answer: 64°
Solution : Since opposite angles of a rhombus are equal So, $\angle$ADC = $\angle$ABC = 52° Also, $\angle$DAC = $\angle$DCA = $x$ (say) [since AD = DC] In $\triangle$ ADC, $\angle$ADC + $\angle$DAC + $\angle$DCA = 180° ⇒ $x+x+52°$ = 180° ⇒ $x$ = 64° ⇒ $\angle$DCA
