If sec 3 theta = √2, Find tan(90° - 2 theta)
Given:
sec 3 theta = √2
To find:
Find tan(90° - 2 theta)
Solution:
⟹ sec 3θ = √2
⟹ sec 3θ = sec 45° [sec 45° = √2]
⟹ 3θ = 45°
⟹
Now,
tan(90° - 2θ)
= cot 2θ
= cot 2 × 15° [ θ = 15°]
= cot 30°
= √3
Therefore, the value of tan(90°-2θ) = √3

The sums of squares of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 290. Find the number.
Given:
- The sums of squares of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 290
To find:
Find the number.
Solution:
Let the two consecutive number be x and (x+2)
According to question, we have
or,
Since the number is positive,the number is x = 11
.°. x + 2 = 11 + 2 = 13
Therefore,
sum of numbers is = ( 11 + 13 ) = 24
Therefore, the number is 24

Answers:-
1) Given:
sec 3θ = √2
√2 can be written as sec 45°.
So, sec 3θ = sec 45°
On comparing both sides we get,
⟶ 3θ = 45°
⟶ θ = 45/3
⟶ θ = 15°
Now,
We have to find;
⟶ tan (90 - 2θ)°
⟶ tan (90 - 2*15)°
⟶ tan (90 - 30)°
⟶ tan 60°
- tan 60° = √3
⟶ √3
∴ The value of tan (90 - 2θ)° is √3

2) Given:
Sum of squares of two consecutive positive odd numbers = 290
Let the numbers be x , x + 2.
According to the above condition,
⟶ x² + (x + 2)² = 290
- (a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab
⟶ x² + x² + 4 + 4x = 290
⟶ 2x² + 4x + 4 - 290 = 0
⟶ 2x² + 4x - 286 = 0
⟶ x² + 2x - 143 = 0
⟶ x² - 11x + 13x - 143 = 0
⟶ x(x - 11) + 13(x - 11) = 0
⟶ (x - 11)(x + 13) = 0
★ x - 11 = 0
⟶ x = 11
★ x + 13 = 0
⟶ x = - 13
It is given that they are positive integers. So, negative value of x is neglected.
∴
- First number = x = 11
- Second number = x + 2 = 11 + 2 = 13
