Question : If $x\sin^{3}\theta +y\cos^{3}\theta=\sin\theta\cos\theta$ and $x\sin\theta-y\cos\theta=0$, then the value of $\left ( x^{2}+y^{2} \right )$ equals:

Option 1: $1$

Option 2: $\frac{1}{2}$

Option 3: $\frac{3}2$

Option 4: $2$

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $1$


Solution : Given: $x\sin\theta=y\cos\theta$
And, $x\sin^{3}\theta +y\cos^{3}\theta=\sin\theta\cos\theta$
⇒ $x\sin\theta(\sin^{2}\theta) +y\cos\theta(\cos^{2}\theta)=\sin\theta\cos\theta$
Since, $x\sin\theta=y\cos\theta$ and $\sin^{2}\theta+\cos^{2}\theta=1$,
So, $x\sin\theta=y\cos\theta=\sin\theta\cos\theta$
⇒ $x=\cos\theta$ and $y=\sin\theta$
So, $x^{2}+y^{2}=\sin^{2}\theta+\cos^{2}\theta=1$
Hence, the correct answer is 1.

Question : If $\frac{2 p}{p^2-5 p+1}=\frac{1}{10}, p \neq 0$, then the value of $\left(p+\frac{1}{p}\right)$ is:

Option 1: 10

Option 2: 25

Option 3: 1

Option 4: 15

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 25


Solution : $\frac{2 p}{p^2-5 p+1}=\frac{1}{10}$
⇒ $p^2-5 p+1$ = $20p$
⇒ $p^2-25 p+1$ = $0$
⇒ $p+\frac{1}{p}-25$ = $0$
⇒ $p+\frac{1}{p}$ = $25$
Hence, the correct answer is 25.
