Question : If $\tan (x + y)=1$ and $\cos (x-y)={\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}$, then what is the value of $x$ and $y$?

Option 1: $x = 3^\circ, y = 4.5^\circ$

Option 2: $x = 37.5^\circ, y = 7.5^\circ$

Option 3: $x = 7.5^\circ, y = 37.5^\circ$

Option 4: $x = 4.5^\circ, y = 3^\circ$

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $x = 37.5^\circ, y = 7.5^\circ$


Solution : $\tan (x + y)=1=\tan 45^\circ$
$⇒x+y=45^\circ$ ____(i)
$\cos (x-y)={\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}=\cos 30^\circ$
$⇒x+y=30^\circ$ ____(ii)
Adding both equations,
$⇒2x=75^\circ$
$⇒x=37.5^\circ$
And,
$⇒2y=15^\circ$
$⇒y=7.5^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is $x = 37.5^\circ, y = 7.5^\circ$.

Question : If $2\tan^2A+4\cos^4A=3$, then the possible value of $A$ is:

Option 1: 45°

Option 2: 60°

Option 3:

Option 4: 30°

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 45°


Solution : Given: $2\tan^2A+4\cos^4A=3$
Take $A = 45°$ then,
$2\tan^2A+4\cos^4A=2(1)^2+4(\frac{1}{\sqrt2})^4 = 2 + 1 = 3$
So, $A = 45°$ satisfies the given equation.
Hence, the correct answer is 45°.
