Question : If $\tan\left ( A-B \right )=x$, then the value of $x$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{\tan A+\tan B}{1-\tan A \tan B}$
Option 2: $\frac{\tan A+\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B}$
Option 3: $\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1-\tan A \tan B}$
Option 4: $\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B}$
Solution : $\tan(A-B) = \frac{\sin(A-B)}{\cos(A-B)}$ We know that, $\sin(A-B)=\sin A \cos B - \cos A \sin B$ $\cos(A-B)=\cos A \cos B + \sin A \sin B$ On substituting the values, $\tan(A-B) = \frac{\sin A \cos B - \cos A \sin B}{\cos A

Question : If $\tan (90-\theta)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$, then the value of $2 \sqrt{3} \tan \theta+1$ is:
Option 1: 4
Option 2: 5
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 6
Correct Answer: 4
Solution : $\tan (90-\theta)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$ ⇒ $\cot \theta=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$ ⇒ $\tan \theta=\frac{\sqrt3}{2}$ $\therefore 2 \sqrt{3} \tan \theta+1=3+1=4$ Hence, the correct answer is 4.
Question : A shopkeeper earns a profit of 20% after offering a discount of 10% on the marked price of an electric mixer. What is the cost price (in INR) of the electric mixer having a marked price of INR 6,500?
Option 1: 4,900
Option 2: 4,825
Option 3: 4,850
Option 4: 4,875
Correct Answer: 4,875
Solution : Given: The marked price of the electric mixer = INR 6,500 Discount % = 10% Selling price after getting 10% discount = $\frac{90}{100}\times 6500$ = INR 5,850 Profit = 20% ⇒ Cost price = $\frac{100}{120}×5850$ = INR 4,875 Hence, the correct answer is INR 4,875.
