Exercise 10 D
Q-1 (a) (i) and (ii)

try and tell me!!

Getting the answers, but not being confirmed with which are at the back.. :-\

Sorry for the late reply, I was busy in the science section.

Anyway it's obvious the answers from the book are not good. ;)
Let the length to be found be .
Using pythagoras theorem :
2 = 8.82 + (5,/3)2
2 = 77.44 + 75
2 = 3811/25 ----> = 1/5(,/3811)

 sin theta = 8.8/, cos theta = (5,/3)/ and tan theta = (5,/3)/8.8

NOTE : ,/ stands for square root. ;D

Yes, there is a printing mistake. Then I got same answers.
No logic has to be applied in this question, CIE is dumb. :D

Actually the book took to be 4,/3 but although is more or less equal to 4,/3, it is not exactly equal to 4,/3. ;D

is equal to ,/152.44

What they took is not near to x's real value also.

X is 12.34

Then how can they take it as X = 6.92 ?

I don't know. :-[

But according to its answers for sin, cos and tan, it seems they took 4,/3

Nevermind. Let's just forget about it. ;)
