Question : If $\sin (p+q)=1$ and $\cos (p-q)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$, then find $p$.

Option 1: 90°

Option 2: 80°

Option 3: 60°

Option 4: 120°

Team Careers360 6th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 60°


Solution : Given: $\sin (p+q)=1$ and $\cos (p-q)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$\sin (p+q)=\sin 90°$ and $\cos (p-q)=\cos 30°$
⇒ $(p+q)=90°$ ------------(1)
And $(p-q)=30°$ --------- (2)
Adding equations (1) and (2), we have,
⇒ $2p=120°$
⇒ $p=60°$
Hence, the correct answer is 60°.

Question : If $x=5–\sqrt{21}$, the value of $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{32–2x}–\sqrt{21}}$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{1}{\sqrt2}(\sqrt{3}–\sqrt{7})$

Option 2: $\frac{1}{\sqrt2}(\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3})$

Option 3: $\frac{1}{\sqrt2}(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{3})$

Option 4: $\frac{1}{\sqrt2}(7–\sqrt{3})$

Team Careers360 3rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{\sqrt2}(\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3})$


Solution : Given: $x=5–\sqrt{21}$
⇒ $\sqrt{x}=\sqrt{5–\sqrt{21}}$
⇒ $\sqrt{x}={\sqrt \frac{10–2\sqrt{21}}{2}}$
⇒ $\sqrt{x}=\sqrt{\frac{7+3–2\sqrt{7}\sqrt{3}}{2}}$
⇒ $\sqrt{x}=\sqrt{\frac{(\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3})^{2}}{2}}$
⇒ $\sqrt{x}=\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}$
Putting the value of $\sqrt{x}$ in the expression $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{32–2x}–\sqrt{21}}$, we have:
= $\frac{\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}}{\sqrt{32–10+2\sqrt{21}}–\sqrt{21}}$
= $\frac{\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}}{\sqrt{22+2\sqrt{21}}–\sqrt{21}}$
= $\frac{\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}}{\sqrt{21+1+2\sqrt{21}.\sqrt{1}}–\sqrt{21}}$
= $\frac{\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}}{\sqrt{(\sqrt{21}+\sqrt{1})^{2}}–\sqrt{21}}$
= $\frac{\frac{\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}}{\sqrt{21}+1–\sqrt{21}}$
= $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3})$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\sqrt{7}–\sqrt{3})$.
