Question 1. If in a Δ ABC, perimeter is 12 units, b = 3 units, c = 5 units then find sin(A2).
 
  1.    1√5
  2.    √5
  3.    1√3
  4.    √3

Answer: Option A. -> 1√5
:
A
We know, sin(A2)=(sb)(sc)b.c
Where"s" is the semiperimeter and b & c are the sides of a triangle.
We'll do the appropriate substitution -
sin(A2)=(63)(65)3.5
sin(A2)=15
Question 2.  In the following figure, the area of the pedal triangle is -
 In The Following Figure, The Area Of The Pedal Triangle Is...
  1.     12R2.sin A.sin B.sin C 
  2.    12R2.sin 2A.sin 2B.sin 2C
  3.     12R2.cos A.cos B.cos C
  4.     None of these

Answer: Option B. -> 12R2.sin 2A.sin 2B.sin 2C
:
B
Since, area of a triangle
=12(product of the sides)×sine of the included angle)
=12Rsin2Bsin(180°2A)
=12R2sin2Asin2Bsin2C
Question 3. In a triangle ABC if a =13, b = 8 and c = 7, then find sin A.

In trigonometry one problem can be solved in multiple ways but it is wise to use the best way to get the answer or at least not to use the lengthiest way. Here, we can apply sine rule and get the answer but have a look at the problem again. We are given all the sides. And when sides are given and angles are asked to find ,using cosine rule is a better option.
According to cosine rule -
cosA=b2+c2a22bc
cosA=(8)2+(7)2(13)22(8)(7) (On putting values of a,b & c)
cosA=12
A=2π3
sinA=sin2π3=32
Question 4. In a triangle ABC, a = 3, b = 5, c = 7. Find the angle opposite to C.
  1.    60∘
  2.    90∘
  3.    120∘
  4.    150∘
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 120∘
:
C
We know from trigonometric ratios of half angles that tanA2=(sb)(sc)(sa)(s)
Here we need angle opposite to c i.e., C.
Semiperimeter, S=a+b+c2=3+5+72=152
tanC2=(sb)(sa)(sc)(s)
=(s3)(s5)(s7)s=(156)(1510)(2)4(1514)(152)
=9(5)15=3C2=60C=120
Question 5. If sides of a triangle are 3,5,7 then the area of that triangle is -
  1.    √42.18  
  2.    √62.78      
  3.    √97.89  
  4.    √23.12  
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> √42.18  
:
A
We know the area of a triangle can be calculated using its sides through Heron's formula
s(sa)(sb)(sc)
Where "s" is the semiperimeter of the triangle.
And a, b, c are the sides of it.
So, s=3+5+72=7.5
And Area = 7.5(7.53)(7.55)(7.57)
=42.18
Question 6. If the median AD of a triangle ABC is perpendicular to BC, then which of the following is true always?
 
  1.    B = C
  2.    A = C
  3.    A = B
  4.    A = B = C
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> B = C
:
A
As the median is perpendicular by SAS similarity angle B should be equal to angle C.
Question 7. Which of the following relations hold true ?
  1.    r=Δs,r=2RsinA2sinB2sinC2
  2.    r=Δs,r=RsinA2sinB2sinC2
  3.    r=Δs,r=2RsinA3sinB3sinC3
  4.    r=Δs,r=2RsinA3sinB2sinC2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> r=Δs,r=2RsinA2sinB2sinC2
:
A
Relation between in radius, Area of triangle and semiperimeter can be given by r=Δs and relation between inradius and circumradius can be given by r=2RsinA2sinB2sinC2
Question 8.  Find the area of a triangle if two sides are of 5 units, 8 units and the angle between them is 30.
 
  1.    10
  2.    20
  3.    30
  4.    50
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 10
:
A
We know that the area of a triangle = 12 a.b.sin C
In this C is the angle opposite to the side of length "c" or made in between sides a & b.
Area =125.8.sin30
Area = 10 units.
