Question : If $x=\sqrt3+\frac{1}{\sqrt3}$, then the value of $(x-\frac{\sqrt{126}}{\sqrt{42}})(x-\frac{1}{x-\frac{2\sqrt3}{3}})$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{5\sqrt3}{6}$

Option 2: $\frac{2\sqrt3}{3}$

Option 3: $\frac{5}{6}$

Option 4: $\frac{2}{3}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{5}{6}$


Solution : $x=\sqrt{3}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
⇒ $x=\frac{3+1}{\sqrt{3}}$
⇒ $x=\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}$
Now,
$(x-\frac{\sqrt{126}}{\sqrt{42}} )(x-\frac{1}{x-\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}})$
Putting the value of $x$, we get,
= $(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{\sqrt{126}}{\sqrt{42}})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{1}{\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}})$
= $(\frac{4\sqrt{42}-\sqrt{126}\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{42}\sqrt{3}} )(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{1}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}})$
= $(\frac{4\sqrt{42}-3\sqrt{42}}{\sqrt{42}\sqrt{3}})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$
= $(\frac{\sqrt{42}}{\sqrt{42}\sqrt{3}})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$
= $(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})(\frac{8-3}{2\sqrt{3}})$
= $\frac{5}{6}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{5}{6}$.

Question : If $\cot \theta=\frac{9}{17}$, find the value of $\operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta$.

Option 1: $1\frac{9}{17}$

Option 2: $\frac{208}{289}$

Option 3: $\frac{8}{17}$

Option 4: $1\frac{81}{289}$

Team Careers360 8th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $1\frac{81}{289}$


Solution : Given, $\cot \theta=\frac{9}{17}$
$⇒\cot^2 \theta = \frac{81}{289}$
We know, $\cot^2 \theta = \operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta-1$
$⇒\operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta-1=\frac{81}{289}$
$⇒\operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta=1+\frac{81}{289}$
$⇒\operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta=1\frac{81}{289}$
Hence, the correct answer is $1\frac{81}{289}$.

Question : If p + q = 7 and p2 + q2 = 25, then find the value of pq.

Option 1: 24

Option 2: 12

Option 3: 18

Option 4: 36

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 12


Solution : Given, p + q = 7
Squaring both sides,
p2 + q2 + 2pq = 49
⇒ 25 + 2pq = 49
⇒ 2pq = 24
⇒ pq = 12
Hence, the correct answer is 12.
