Trigonometry Class 10 Kerala Syllabus Question 1.
In the triangle shown, what is the perpendicular distance from the top vertex to the bottom side? What is the area of the triangle?


Answer:

The sides of the right angle triangle with angles 30°, 60°, 90° are proportional to the number 1 : √3 : 2
AD : BD : AB = 1 : √3 : 2
AB = 2x = 4cm
x = 2 cm
AD = 2 cm
BD = 2√3cm
Perpendicular distance from the top vertex to the bottom side = AD = 2 cm
BC = 2BD = 4√3 cm
Area of triangle = 1/2 bh
1/2 × 4√3 × 2 = 4√3 cm2

One angle of a triangle is 30°, prove that radius of the circumcircle is equal to the side opposite to 30°
Answer:
For a right-angled triangle one of the angles is 30° then other one is 60°.
Side which is opposite to the angle of 90° is twice of the side which is opposite to the angle of 30°
Center of circumcircle is the midpoint of the side, which is opposite to the angle 90° that means half.
∴ Radius of the circumcircle is equal to the side opposite to 30°.

Question 48.
P be a point on a circle having diameter AB. ∠ABP = 30°, BP = 6cm. Draw a rough figure.
Find the length of AP and area of circle ?
Answer:
∠P = 90°, ∠A = 60°,
AP: PB: AB = 1: √3 :2
AP = 2√3 cm,
AB = 4√3 cm
Radius of circle = 2√3 cm
Area of circle = π(2√3)2
cm = 12 π cm2

Question 51.
A girl standing on a lighthouse built on a cliff near the seashore, observes two boats due East of the lighthouse. The angles of depression of the two boats are 300 and 600. The distance between the boats is 300m.
a. Draw a rough figure based on the given details.
b. Find the distance of the top of the lighthouse from the sea level. (Boats and foot of the lighthouse are in a straight line).
Answer:

Kerala Syllabus 10th Standard Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Trigonometry - 145
Distance of the top of the lighthouse from the sea level = 259.8m

Question 52.
In the figure, OR is perpendicular to OP and OP = 12cm. A, B and C are points on OR. If ∠OPA = 30°? ∠APB = 15°,and ∠BPC = 15°. Find OA, OB and OC. Also find AB: BC.

Kerala Syllabus 10th Standard Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Trigonometry - 146
Now consider ΔOPB. It is a right triangle with angles 45°, 45°, 9Q° Since the side OP = 12cm, side OB is also 12cm.

Also ΔOPC is a right triangle with angles 30°, 60°, 90°. Since the side opposite to 30° angle is 12cm, the side opposite to the 60° angle ie OC is 12√3.
Thus OA = 4√3 cm,
