For triangle ABC, show that:

(i) Concise Selina Solutions for Class 9 Maths

(ii) Concise Selina Solutions for Class 9 Maths
Chapter 25 - Image 11

Solution:

(i) We know that for △ ABC

∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180o

∠ B + ∠ A = 180o = ∠ C

(∠ B + ∠ A) /2 = 90o – ∠ C/2

Sin [(A+B)/2] = sin (90o – C/2)

= cos (C/2)

(ii) We know that for △ ABC

∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180o

∠ B + ∠ C = 180o = ∠ A

(∠ B + ∠ C) /2 = 90o – ∠ A/2

tan [(B + C)/2] = tan (90o – A/2)

= cot (A/2)

8. In each case, given below, find the value of angle A, where 0° ≤ A ≤ 90°.

(i) sin (90° – 3A). cosec 42° = 1

(ii) cos (90° – 3A).sec 77° = 1

Solution:

(i) Given sin (90° – 3A). cosec 42° = 1

On rearranging we get

sin (90° – 3A) = 1/cosec 42o

cos 3A = 1/cosec (90o – 48o)

cos 3A = 1/sec 48o

cos 3A = cos 48o

3A = 48o

Therefore, A = 16o

(ii) Given cos (90° – 3A).sec 77° = 1

cos (90° – 3A) = 1/ sec 77° 

sin 3A = 1/ sec (90o – 12o)

sin 3A = 1/cosec 12o

sin 3A = sin 12o

3A = 12o

A = 3o
