Question : From an aeroplane just over a straight road, the angles of depression of two consecutive kilometre stones situated at opposite sides of the aeroplane were found to be 60° and 30°, respectively. The height (in km) of the aeroplane from the road at that instant, is:

Option 1: $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

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

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

Option 4: $\sqrt{3}$

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}$


Solution :
Let the aeroplane be at point A at a height $h$ above ground level.
Let B and C be two consecutive kilometre stones with angles of depression $60°$ and $30°$, respectively.
Now, $\tan 60°=\frac{h}{BD}$ and $\tan 30°=\frac{h}{CD}$
⇒ $BD=h\cot 60°$ and $CD=h\cot 30°$
$\because BD+CD=1$

Question : The value of $\tan ^2 48^{\circ}-\operatorname{cosec}^2 42^{\circ}+\operatorname{cosec}\left(67^{\circ}+\theta\right)-\sec \left(23^{\circ}-\theta\right)$ is:

Option 1: $-1$

Option 2: $0$

Option 3: $1$

Option 4: $-2$

Team Careers360 6th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $-1$


Solution : Given: $\tan ^2 48^{\circ}-\operatorname{cosec}^2 42^{\circ}+\operatorname{cosec}\left(67^{\circ}+\theta\right)-\sec \left(23^{\circ}-\theta\right)$
= $\tan ^2 48^{\circ}-\sec^2 (90^{\circ}-42^{\circ})+\sec(90^{\circ}-(67^{\circ}+\theta))-\sec \left(23^{\circ}-\theta\right)$
= $\tan ^2 48^{\circ}-\sec^2 48^{\circ}+\sec(23^{\circ}-\theta)-\sec \left(23^{\circ}-\theta\right)$
= $-1$
Hence, the correct answer is $-1$.
