CBSE Class 10 Maths Important Questions Chapter 8 – Introduction to Trigonometry


3 Mark Questions

1. Given  calculate all other trigonometric ratios.

Ans. Consider a triangle ABC in which A =  and B = 
Let AB =  and BC = 
Then, using Pythagoras theorem,
BC = 


 = 
 




2. If  evaluate:
(i) 
(ii) 


Ans. Consider a triangle ABC in which A =  and B = 
Let AB =  and BC = 
Then, using Pythagoras theorem,
AC =  = 
 =  = 
 

(i) 


 = 
(ii) 
 = 


3. If  check whether  or not.

Ans. Consider a triangle ABC in which B = .
And   
Let AB =  and BC = 
Then, using Pythagoras theorem,
AC = 

 =  = 
 

And 
Now, L.H.S. 

 = 
R.H.S.  = 
 = 
 L.H.S. = R.H.S.
  = 


4. In  ABC right angles at B, if  find value of:
(i) 
(ii) 


Ans. Consider a triangle ABC in which B = .
Let BC =  and AB = 
Then, using Pythagoras theorem,
AC = 

 =  = 
 

For C, Base = BC, Perpendicular = AB and Hypotenuse = AC
 

(i) 

 = 1
(ii) 


5. In  PQR, right angled at Q, PR + QR = 25 cm and PQ = 5 cm. Determine the values of  and 

Ans. In PQR, right angled at Q.
PR + QR = 25 cm and PQ = 5 cm
Let QR =  cm and PR = cm
Using Pythagoras theorem,
RP2 = RQ2 + QP2
 
 
 
 
 RQ = 12 cm and RP = 25 – 12 = 13 cm
 

And 


6. If  and  find A and B.
Ans.
 (i) False, because  = 1
And  = 
 
(ii) True, because

01

It is clear, the value of  increases as  increases.
(iii) False, because

10

It is clear, the value of  decreases as  increases
(iv) False as it is only true for 
 
True, because  and  =  i.e. undefined


7. Choose the correct option. Justify your choice:
(i)  =
(A) 1 (B) 9 (C) 8 (D) 0
(ii)  =
(A) 0 (B) 1 (C) 2 (D) none of these
(iii)  =
(A)  (B)  (C)  (D) 
(iv)  =
(A)  (B)  (C)  (D) none of these
Ans. (i)
 (B) =  = 9 x 1 = 9
(ii) (C)




 
 = 2
(iii) (D)


 =  = 

(iv) (D) = 
 =
