Question : The perimeter of a minor sector of a circle of radius 5 cm is 15.5 cm. Find the area of the minor sector (use $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$ ).
Option 1: 17.53 cm2
Option 2: 13.75 cm2
Option 3: 13.57 cm2
Option 4: 17.35 cm2
Correct Answer: 13.75 cm2
Solution : Let AOB be the sector with O as the centre. Given: Radius = r = 5 cm Perimeter of sector = 15.5 cm So, OA + AB + OB = 15.5 ⇒ 5 + 5 + AB = 15.5 ⇒ AB = 5.5

Question : If $\sin P=\frac{15}{22}$, then what is the value of $\tan P$?
Option 1: $\frac{16}{\sqrt{259}}$
Option 2: $\frac{22}{\sqrt{259}}$
Option 3: $\frac{14}{\sqrt{259}}$
Option 4: $\frac{15}{\sqrt{259}}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{15}{\sqrt{259}}$
Solution : $\sin P=\frac{15}{22}$ We know, $\cos A = \sqrt{(1 - \sin^2 A)}$ So, $\cos A = \sqrt{(1 - (\frac{15}{22})^2}$ ⇒ $\cos A = \sqrt{(1 - (\frac{225}{484})}$ ⇒ $\cos A = \sqrt{\frac{259}{484}}$ ⇒ $\cos A = \frac{\sqrt{259}}{22}$ So, $\tan A = \frac{\sin A}{\cos A}= \frac{\frac{15}{22}}{ \frac{\sqrt{259}}{22}}= \frac{15}{\sqrt{259}}$
