Question: 34
In ΔPQR, right angled at Q, PQ = 3 cm and PR = 6 cm. Determine ∠ P and ∠ R.
Solution:
In ΔPQR, right angled at Q, PQ = 3 cm and PR = 6 cm
By Pythagoras theorem,
PR2 = PQ2 + QR2
⟹ 62 = 32 + QR2
⟹ QR2 = 36 – 9
⟹ QR = √27
⟹ QR = 3√3
sin R = 3/6 = 1/2 = sin30°
∠R = 30°
As we know, Sum of angles in a triangle = 180
∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180°
⟹ ∠P + 90° + 30° = 180°
⟹ ∠P = 180° – 120°
⟹ ∠P = 60°
Therefore, ∠R = 30°
And, ∠P = 60°
Question: 35
If sin (A – B) = sin A cos B – cos A sin B and cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B, find the values of sin 15 and cos 15.
Solution:
Given,
sin (A – B) = sin A cos B – cos A sin B
And, cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B
We need to find, sin 15 and cos 15.
Let A = 45 and B = 30
sin 15 = sin (45- 30) = sin 45 cos 30 – cos 45 sin 30

cos 15 = cos (45- 30) = cos 45 cos 30 – sin 45 sin 30

Question: 36

x = 7.5 units
Question: 37
In ΔABC is a right triangle such that ∠C = 90°, ∠A = 45°and BC = 7 units. Find the remaining angles and sides.
Solution:
Here, ∠C = 90° and ∠A = 45°
We know that,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⟹ 45°+ 90° + ∠C = 180°
⟹ 135° + ∠C = 180°
⟹ ∠C = 180° – 135°
⟹ ∠C = 45°
The value of the remaining angle C is 45°
Now, we need to find the sides x and y here,

y =7√2 units

x = 7 units
the value of x = 7 units and y = √2 units
Question: 38
