3. A wheel makes 360 revolutions in one minute. Through how many radians does it turn in one second?

Solution:

It is given that

No. of revolutions made by the wheel in

1 minute = 360

1 second = 360/60 = 6

We know that

The wheel turns an angle of 2Ï€ radian in one complete revolution.

In 6 complete revolutions, it will turn an angle of 6 × 2π radian = 12 π radian

Therefore, in one second, the wheel turns an angle of 12Ï€ radian.

4. Find the degree measure of the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius 100 cm by an arc of length 22 cm (Use π = 22/7).

Solution:

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.1 Image 9

5. In a circle of diameter 40 cm, the length of a chord is 20 cm. Find the length of minor arc of the chord.

Solution:

The dimensions of the circle are

Diameter = 40 cm

Radius = 40/2 = 20 cm

Consider AB be as the chord of the circle i.e. length = 20 cm

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.1 Image 10

In ΔOAB,

Radius of circle = OA = OB = 20 cm

Similarly AB = 20 cm

Hence, ΔOAB is an equilateral triangle.

θ = 60° = π/3 radian

In a circle of radius r unit, if an arc of length l unit subtends an angle θ radian at the centre

We get θ = 1/r

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.1 Image 11

Therefore, the length of the minor arc of the chord is 20Ï€/3 cm.

6. If in two circles, arcs of the same length subtend angles 60° and 75° at the centre, find the ratio of their radii.

Solution:

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.1 Image 12

7. Find the angle in radian though which a pendulum swings if its length is 75 cm and the tip describes an arc of length

(i) 10 cm (ii) 15 cm (iii) 21 cm

Solution:

In a circle of radius r unit, if an arc of length l unit subtends an angle θ radian at the centre, then θ = 1/r

We know that r = 75 cm

(i) l = 10 cm

So we get

θ = 10/75 radian

By further simplification

θ = 2/15 radian

(ii) l = 15 cm

So we get

θ = 15/75 radian

By further simplification

θ = 1/5 radian

(iii) l = 21 cm

So we get

θ = 21/75 radian

By further simplification

θ = 7/25 radian

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.3 Image 30

We get

= [2 cos 4x cos (-2x)] [-2 sin 4x sin (-2x)]

It can be written as

= [2 cos 4x cos 2x] [–2 sin 4x (–sin 2x)]

So we get

= (2 sin 4x cos 4x) (2 sin 2x cos 2x)

= sin 8x sin 4x

= RHS

14. sin 2x + 2sin 4x + sin 6x = 4cos2 x sin 4x

Solution:

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.3 Image 31

By further simplification

= 2 sin 4x cos (– 2x) + 2 sin 4x

It can be written as

Taking common terms

= 2 sin 4x (cos 2x + 1)

Using the formula

= 2 sin 4x (2 cos2 x – 1 + 1)

We get

= 2 sin 4x (2 cos2 x)

= 4cos2 x sin 4x

= R.H.S.

15. cot 4x (sin 5x + sin 3x) = cot x (sin 5x – sin 3x)

24. cos 4x = 1 – 8sin2 x cos2 x

Solution:

Consider

LHS = cos 4x

We can write it as

= cos 2(2x)

Using the formula cos 2A = 1 – 2 sin2 A

= 1 – 2 sin2 2x

Again by using the formula sin2A = 2sin A cos A

= 1 – 2(2 sin x cos x) 2

So we get

= 1 – 8 sin2x cos2x

= R.H.S.

25. cos 6x = 32 cos6 x – 48 cos4 x + 18 cos2 x – 1

Solution:

Consider

L.H.S. = cos 6x

It can be written as

= cos 3(2x)

Using the formula cos 3A = 4 cos3 A – 3 cos A

= 4 cos3 2x – 3 cos 2x

Again by using formula cos 2x = 2 cos2 x – 1

= 4 [(2 cos2 x – 1)3 – 3 (2 cos2 x – 1)

By further simplification

= 4 [(2 cos2 x) 3 – (1)3 – 3 (2 cos2 x) 2 + 3 (2 cos2 x)] – 6cos2 x + 3

We get

= 4 [8cos6x – 1 – 12 cos4x + 6 cos2x] – 6 cos2x + 3

By multiplication

= 32 cos6x – 4 – 48 cos4x + 24 cos2 x – 6 cos2x + 3

On further calculation

= 32 cos6x – 48 cos4x + 18 cos2x – 1

= R.H.S.

7. sin 2x + cos x = 0

Solution:

It is given that

sin 2x + cos x = 0

We can write it as

2 sin x cos x + cos x = 0

cos x (2 sin x + 1) = 0

cos x = 0 or 2 sin x + 1 = 0

Let cos x = 0

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.4 Image 10

8. sec2 2x = 1 – tan 2x

Solution:

It is given that

sec2 2x = 1 – tan 2x

We can write it as

1 + tan2 2x = 1 – tan 2x

tan2 2x + tan 2x = 0

Taking common terms

tan 2x (tan 2x + 1) = 0

Here

tan 2x = 0 or tan 2x + 1 = 0

If tan 2x = 0

tan 2x = tan 0

We get

2x = nπ + 0, where n ∈ Z

x = nπ/2, where n ∈ Z

tan 2x + 1 = 0

We can write it as

tan 2x = – 1

So we get

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.4 Image 11

Here

2x = nπ + 3π/4, where n ∈ Z

x = nπ/2 + 3π/8, where n ∈ Z

Hence, the general solution is nπ/2 or nπ/2 + 3π/8, n ∈ Z.

9. sin x + sin 3x + sin 5x = 0

Solution:

It is given that

sin x + sin 3x + sin 5x = 0

We can write it as

(sin x + sin 5x) + sin 3x = 0

Using the formula

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Ex 3.4 Image 12

By further calculation

2 sin 3x cos (-2x) + sin 3x = 0

It can be written as

2 sin 3x cos 2x + sin 3x = 0

By taking out the common terms

sin 3x (2 cos 2x + 1) = 0

Here

sin 3x = 0 or 2 cos 2x + 1 = 0

If sin 3x = 0

3x = nπ, where n ∈ Z

We get

x = nπ/3, where n ∈ Z

If 2 cos 2x + 1 = 0

cos 2x = – 1/2

By further simplification

= – cos π/3

= cos (π – π/3)

So we get

cos 2x = cos 2Ï€/3

By further calculation

= sin 3x sin x + sin2 x + cos 3x cos x – cos2 x

Taking out the common terms

= cos 3x cos x + sin 3x sin x – (cos2 x – sin2 x)

Using the formula

cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

= cos (3x – x) – cos 2x

So we get

= cos 2x – cos 2x

= 0

= RHS

3.

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter 3 Miscellaneous Ex Image 5

Solution:

Grouping the terms

= (cos2 x + sin2 x) + (cos2 y + sin2 y) + 2 (cos x cos y – sin x sin y)

Using the formula cos (A + B) = (cos A cos B – sin A sin B)

= 1 + 1 + 2 cos (x + y)

By further calculation

= 2 + 2 cos (x + y)

Taking 2 as common

= 2 [1 + cos (x + y)]

From the formula cos 2A = 2 cos2 A – 1

Grouping the terms

= (cos2 x + sin2 x) + (cos2 y + sin2 y) – 2 (cos x cos y + sin x sin y)

Using the formula cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

= 1 + 1 – 2 [cos (x – y)]

By further calculation

= 2 [1 – cos (x – y)]

From formula cos 2A = 1 – 2 sin2 A
