Answer
1. D, Because the value of sin θ and cos θ can never be greater than 1.
2.
Given Req Soln
AB=24cm AC=? (AC)2=(AB)2 + (BC)2
BC=7cm AC=√(24)2 + 72 = 25
a. sin 𝐴 = 7/25 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝐴 = 24/25
b. sin 𝑐 = 24/25, cos 𝑐 =7/25
3.
A. The statement is false as tan A can be greater than 1 too.
B. The statement is false Because Sin ø can't be equal to 4/3 because value of sinø lies
between -1 to +1 it can't have Value greater than 1. so, it is not possible. no such
angle exists.
C. The statement is true
D. The statement is true
4. The answer is D Because tan 𝜃 and sin 𝜃 are not equal sin𝜃=1/ √2, tan𝜃=1
5. The answer is B
6.
A. Sin 180 =0.309017
B. Cos 570=0.544639
C. Tan 710=2.904214
7. tan A=12.10=850
8.
Given Req Soln
AB=50m h=? cos <A=600=1/2
<A=60 cos <A= AB/AC
cos <A=1/2=50/AC
1/2=50/AC
2(50)=1(AC)
100=AC

h2+(AB)2=(AC)2
h =(AC)2-(AB)2

Given Req Soln
PB=60m x=? a, tan 250=PB/SB=0.466307=60m/x
